If I am forced to buy T3 privately like a lot of us are unfortunatly, would I then have to pay for thyroid function tests privately too ?? !!!
That's down to your doctor. If that was me and I was forced to buy my own after having my prescription taken away, and my doctor was on board with me sourcing my own, then I would expect him to agree to continue monitoring me and do the tests through the surgery, ensuring that FT3 is included as you take T3.
Oh dear !! My GP would not agree to blood tests because she just cannot understand why I can't take T4 but thank you for your reply. At least I know where I stand.
This situation is just so unbelievable and disheartening.
No problem with D102 but the further DNA testing looks interesting. I will look into that.
I suffer from multiple allergies which are getting worse. Waiting to see an Immunologist. They may test me for fillers in the T4 tablets. I'm wondering if that could be what it is.
