Help getting Thybon Henning in France

I have been trying to get better for nearly a year now. I was on Thyroid s NDT for over seven years and felt very well. All that changed last Sept when the NDT changed and my FT3 dropped from over 6 to 2 I started falling over. When I had a blood test it confirmed it.

I have Levo and T3 Cynomel prescribed to me here in France. I have no gut problems at all but the T3 just goes straight through me however little I take. I would like to try the German make. My question is does anyone know how to get it in France please.

After nearly a year of trying, this morning I fell down again in the Supermarket. I am now on Levo 50mcg at 6am. Trying to raise it up slowly. Because I have no thyroid I need T3 for a few weeks until the Levo starts working.

You can check with online German pharmacies if they will accept a French prescription, for example versandapo.de/thybon-100-he... there are many others

French T3 has gluten & i didn't get along well with it either.

Thank you I will try it. I haven't got a prescription for the German one so I would have to see my GP here and get it written up. The weird thing is I haven't go Hashi or any Gut problems and haven't had any allergies either. It must have something else which my stomach hates

I would contact the Germany pharmacy first to make sure it's possible, and then ask them exactly what the prescription needs to say, that way you don't have to go back to the GP twice if they do it wrong the first time. Good luck!

Hi yes I would first things first. I don't like to visit the GP much anyway, so good, thank you.
