Success! So relieved and thank you

8 Replies

Just wanted to say thank you for all the help on here. I was having problems with getting any treatment from the GP so saw a private endo this morning. He was sooo nice and very supportive - so relieved I could cry. He has put me on 50mcg levo and also doing other tests to help in TTC. And will help in trying to persuade GP on how to manage it (which hopefully will mean she is more knowledgeable when she sees others).

Would not have got there without the people here. Thanks everyone!!

Good news! If this endo is not from ThyroidUK's list, please let Louise Roberts know so that their name can be added.

That is good news .... you do know that is only a starter dose and you will need to increase it by 25mcg after 6 weeks and re-test.
