Anyone being treated for central hypothyroidism or hypopituitarism in South West England?

Based on my low TSH, low Free T4 and low Free T3 levels I think I may have central hypothyroidism or hypopituitarism.

I'd be really interested to hear from anyone having treatment in South West England, I'm in Devon but willing to travel. Please can you PM me if you can suggest a specialist that you've seen.

I've had a rocky road with my GP and Endo who don't believe I have a thyroid problem and want me to stop taking Levothyroxine (currently on 50mg). But I want to see whether it could be something else, maybe central hypothyroidism or hypopituitarism.

Many thanks for your help!
