Buying T3 privately

Can I have some help with sourcing T3 privately. I am UK. Endo has me on 10 mcg of T3, morning dose, for the last 9 weeks. I feel that this should be upped, but I do not see him now for another 2 months. I would like to be able to adjust my T3 in increments as my hypo symptoms are back. They were alright for 2/3 weeks on 10mcg of T3. My T3 readings have not budged although my over the range T4 has come down. My last lot of blood tests are on my previous post.

I will feel more secure if I can buy a supply. Also just in case endo decides to take me off of T3.

I have been hypothyroid for 28 years only on a starting dose of 25 mcg T4 for 5 years and at my insistent GP then put it up to 50mcg for another 18 years. Dr C took me under his wing because of my low B12 and nerve damage. He had me daily injecting with B12 because of my enlarged red blood cells, ataxia and nerve damage. He also had me upping to T4 to 75mcg and then a 100 mcg. My own doctor agreed to this.

Endo half my dose of T4 to 50mcg and 10 mcg of T3.

I have since 6 weeks ago put my T4 up to 75mcg myself, did not feel a difference. I have just started 2 weeks ago to up my T3 15mcg. Hair stopped falling out, and wow I have some hair growing under my arms now. Felt better for 2 weeks but now feel lousy again.

How to get T3 privately would be a great help. Can peeps message me?

When you receive a message with a recommendation, please do not assume it is genuine.

Scammers are joining the forum on a very regular basis and messaging members with their assertions that they have successfully purchased xyz medication from zyx source.

First, check the profile of the member that sent you the message. Are they a long term member with an active forum posting history? Or are they a recently

joined member with little or no posting history?

Once you have what you think may be a genuine recommendation, please message a forum admin to ask whether the admin team have any feedback on the source you've been given.

Admins are not allowed to recommend sources, but we can tell you what, if any, feedback we've received about the source you've been given.

⚠️ Don't part with your much needed money until you are as sure as you can be that the source is genuine.

Scammers often join the forum and post a 'fake' story about their thyroid journey, that includes mention of self sourcing their thyroid meds. This is to encourage members to ask them where they purchase their medication without prescription.
