Help sourcing T3

I've been taking T3 for 2 years and normally get it imported from Bulgaria. The place I was using has now closed. There are other places in that region but due to Covid-19 they can't get it here until normal flights resume.

So now I'm panicking a bit because it takes a while in normal circumstances and I have just over a months supply left.

Does anyone know anywhere else a bit closer to the UK I can buy online without a prescription? (My GP knows I take it but refuses to prescribe it).

Also, would it be catastrophic if I ran out? What would happen to my health?

I imagine all post from overseas is being affected in some way at the moment. I have something coming from the US, ordered on 25th March, tracking link sent and nothing since 28th March when it says "Leaving the USA" so I imagine it's still there. Can you possibly eke it out in the meantime by taking slightly less? You might find hypothyroid symptoms might gradually start creeping back, maybe feeling more tired (that's my usual symptom if I'm undermedicated).

As we can't discuss suppliers on the forum, I will turn off replies so that no information is posted here and if anyone can help they will send you a private message.

Not what you're looking for?
