Stupidly mixed up pills and didn’t take liothyronine to Algarve but did have prescriptions in hope of buying some cheaply there. Tried to get in pharmacy Messines but told not available in Portugal.
To allow for losing things in translation, went to private hospital in Albufeira. Told in clear English by a doctor that it’s not available in Portugal. Pretty certain he said Portugal and not just Algarve. He gave me Levo which started on Saturday.
Fine all week away (he said would have build up in body). Muzz and lethargy started Tuesday after got back, even though restarted t3 on Saturday the following week. Hope passes soon.
Bad news for anyone going to Portugal in the hopes!
