Hi everyone ♥️

Well saw a lovely gp today who actually listened to me and I'm totally gobsmacked he agrees with me also.. That T4.. Levoroxine is not agreeing with me and it's not being absorbed properly. He did an examination on me and noted I was hyper and agreed 75mg was a low dose to have such symptoms I told him I've not felt any change in my symptoms since being diagnosed hyperthiyroid I have no symptoms of constipation or cold, I have constant pain due to other conditions I was the Same on 25mg levo still shaking sweating exhausted even just climbing my stairs one flight same when I was hyper... He noted everything and sent a important e-mail to my endo to be responded to immediately.. I received a phone call from the gp an hour after returning home.. My endo said try her on liquid 😠 eventho the gp had put in the notes I was on liquid and had been on several tablets with the same symptoms he also put liothyronine T3.. As I was going to see him to see if he would prescribe T3 I opted to have a trial of this it's T3 only no levo thank goodness I hope this works for me I'm crossing everything 🤞🤞🤞🤞
