How to get necessary thyroid blood tests

Huge thanks for replying to my post and for the information. Glad to know that the GP's are not thought to be a guilty party. Apalled that the Endocrinologists may be in cohoots. And not remotely surprised that Big Pharma and profit are the biggest players.

I have my blood tests next week so I'll find out what has been tested and what hasn't. Will get tests done privately if needs be.

Final question: It's wonderful that you folks out there are willing and able to help/inform. But this is a scandal! Can we collectively change things for the better? And if so, how?

Best wishes to everyone struggling with unresolved health issues.

Become a member of Thyroiduk.org.uk as it is they who are behind this forum - they only have a staff of three who do all of the research/meeting other organisations (like the Members of the House of Lords) to complain - and also about the removal of T3 from being prescribed etc etc. They try to change the attitudes of the medical professionals.
