Thank you! Victory is mine ( for now, anyway)

Hello

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone for giving me advice over the last few months. I’ve been seen by the endo and am to stay on 10mcg T3 twice a day and 100mcg T4.

My TSH is suppressed but he is fine with that despite my GP kicking up about it. He has said for me to stay on this dose as long as I feel well despite what my TSH may say.

He has also confirmed the shared care agreement signed up to by my CCG and has told me he will document that I fulfill all the criteria to stay on T3 long term.

I feel so much better and want to thank you all!!! 😊😊😊

And an example others can take to GPs and endos to prove it isn’t a fait accompli - it can still be prescribed.
