Struggled on T4 only for nearly 20 years. Please please - help/direction really appreciated

Hi I am 37 and have been on T4 only for nearly 20 years (100mg daily). I’ve had my money taken by online sites twice trying to buy legitimate T3 online - my doctor won’t prescribe it no matter how much literature I take into my appointments(!) “oh I don’t really know about that sorry”.....

Anyway - I believe it could transform my world. I am a FT single mother of my beautiful 4yr old daughter but some days I’m so tired woozey & shakey I feel that I sometimes fail her by not being FIT ENOUGH to do more with her. I’m not hugely over-weight, but I feel like I’m in my 80’s some days. So tired I can’t describe, it’s crazy.

If anyone can share where they buy their legitimate T3 from online I would be forever grateful (even just to TRY it and report back).

Best wishes to all & thank you x
