It’s been a while since I posted. I’ve been under a lovely Endo on the NHS for about 7 months and have gradually increased t4 from 100 to 125mcg daily. TSH now down to near the bottom of the range, t4 20+, t3 still a stubborn 3.7, up from 3.6! (Full numbers on my profile)
Endo has been great, very honest and open that he is no longer permitted to trial me on t3 under the nhs, but that in private practice he would/could. I have improved with the t4 dose uplift, but there are residual symptoms such as heavy periods, stubborn weight, and fatigue after activity that would be nice to shift.
He has said he is no longer permitted to prescribe in private practice in a way that would allow me to get t3 from Germany. So my question is: Does anybody here have an Endo in the UK from which they can get German-priced and prescribed t3? Thanks in advance.
P.S to anyone struggling with a TSH over 1 - it’s worth making the fuss to get your dose increased, and I’m pretty sure the upward trend in my vitamins thanks to supplements and black pudding have helped too.
