I live in the UK and I've been given a private prescription for t3. I got this from the chemist and had to pay £495 for three months tablets.
Does anyone recommend any countries in Europe where its cheaper to see an endocrinologist and buy T3 more affordably? If you could send me a private message that would be great.
Many thanks,
Jenn

The T3 has been prescribed by a private endocrinologist to see if my symptoms improve while still taking the 75mcg Levothyroxine (still the same dose), I was told to alternate taking the Levo 50mcg and 75mcg. They didn't test my vitamins. My most recent results on the 19th April were (symtoms freezing cold and super tired): TSH 1.25 mIU/L, free T4 16.35 pmol/L, free T3 3.3 pmol/L
With Hashimoto’s poor gut function can frequently lead leaky gut (literally holes in gut wall) this can cause food intolerances.
Most common by far is gluten.
Dairy is second most common.
So coeliac test was negative
A trial of strictly gluten free diet is always worth doing
Only 5% of Hashimoto’s patients test positive for coeliac but a further 81% of Hashimoto’s patients who try gluten free diet find noticeable or significant improvement or find it’s essential
Similarly few months later consider trying dairy free too. Approx 50-60% find dairy free beneficial
