Hi all
Had a TT due to cancer
Rai all done 2018
What’s the score with covid 19
Do I need to self isolate for 12 weeks
Is our immune system at risk due to having no thyroid?
My endo said I would be ok. But not sure
Thanks

I am far less worried now that I take NDT but I am taking every precaution I can to avoid contamination.
Hi, You should have had a letter a couple of weeks ago if you were in shielding group & another letter last week. You would also have had texts & phone calls.
