Very interesting Rod!

I emailed the MHRA to ask for links to all clinical trials pertaining to the introduction of Levothyroxine over 50 years ago. They wrote back saying it was now a freedom of information request! I find that most odd.

didn't have you down for a twit Rod as you're a non fb-er? (I'm a twit too btw) J

I don't! But thought it might be of use to others who do.

Possibly easier for some? I really don't know.

Whilst I cannot abide some aspects of Twitter, the idea that it can be used in a very serious way like this almost redeems it.

I joined a while back, as I wondered if famous people were quite normal, of course they are & good for news & thoughts, but also a lot of flack, then I forgot my password, as we do!

but causes seem to do better on fb - and I use it to find out what the family are really doing! - such as recent baby pics etc. they tend to go there first as it's easy with these fandangled smart phones - us oldies have gotta keep up, can't let the youngsters think we're daft! J
