ITT Improve Thyroid Treatment have a survey to reflect the patients' voice on the the NICE draft guideline on thyroid disease and management. It ends on 30th June.
Many thanks And don't forget to share wherever you can!
Only just seen this, but still have a few days to respond.
Starting to read the notes on Question 1 I came across this:
"Some evidence suggested that combination therapy with levothyroxine and liothyronine could be harmful because it may suppress the production of TSH. "
The key question is: "What is the documented evidence that TSH suppression in otherwise optimally treated hypothyroid patients is harmful?"
The questions mostly refer to NICE wording. If you have more comments, or if it's easier to email them, then please do that. Address in the original post
Oh dear I am sorry. I haven' heard of any problems like that up to now. Are you using a phone or a MAC ? Maybe they don't work so well? But I'm only guessing. Do feel free to email your comments in, as they're all being saved. It will be a shame not to get your thoughts sent in after you trying so hard.
I'm using a Windows desktop - can't type much on a phone.
I expect it's timing out - been at it since I first commented here! Almost reached the end this time, 4th attempt! At least have the answers copied into a Word document. Getting tired, try again tomorrow
Done. Now to reduce my blood pressure after reading it! The dog and cat quietly left the room as I ranted at the screen! Is it too early for glass of wine?
