Update on DIO2 result

Hi All, I first posted on the forum 16 days ago. In that time I have been waiting for my GP/and an endocrinologist to make a decision about the Dio2 result from regenerous labs showing CC result for polymorphism and code rs 225014. The outcome was that I have just been told that this result is not accepted, they doubt the labs ability and refuse point blank to consider any trial on medication. I could however have a blood test on NHS so they can tell me for the upteenth time I am in the normal range.

Looks like it's private route or try and obtain some armour thyroid from outside UK to self medicate to see how I get on.

I'd appreciate any advice on these two options.

Many thanks and regards to you all.

As we can't discuss individual doctors on the forum, nor can we discuss where to source UK prescription only items without prescription, if anyone can help they will send you information in a private message.

You can also send for the list of thyroid friendly endos (both private and NHS) from ThyroidUK by emailing

tukadmin@thyroiduk.org

The ThyroidUK list is just that, a list of names given by members, they are not recommendations from ThyroidUK. Please do your own research on any doctor that you are considering to ensure you consider them to be the right one for you.

I will turn off replies to this post so that no information is inadvertently posted here.

As per previous post

Next step is to get FULL thyroid and vitamin testing done before considering anything

You don’t appear to have any recent thyroid or vitamin test results

only do private testing early Monday or Tuesday morning

Watch out for postal strikes

Medichecks currently has 25% off - £64.50

all thyroid blood tests early morning, ideally just before 9am

This gives highest TSH, lowest FT4 and most consistent results. (Patient to patient tip)

Vitamin levels are extremely important before considering starting replacement thyroid hormones
