I have been reading this forum since my diagnosis and learned so much. I now need help please. I have updated my bio.
I am currently on 25 mcg x3 T3 daily prescribed by my GP while living in Cyprus. I have recently returned to the uk to live. Initially my new GP prescribed my T3 as it was an existing prescription. It was pointed out to him that he couldn’t do that as the medication had not been started by a UK Endocrinologist. He wrote to the Endocrinologist at the local hospital, who, without having met me, decided that I should be on T4 only within 6 months.!!
Following discussion with my GP, he is happy to support me with blood tests, and will refer me to any endocrinologist in the country for a second opinion.
I have the list of recommended endocrinologists form Thyroid UK, but can anyone give me any personal recommendations for someone who would continue to prescribe T3 for me? I am currently living in Cheshire but I will travel anywhere in the country .
Please contact me directly as i understand that we cannot make recommendations on the site.
Many thanks
