Guest guest Posted January 8, 2011 Report Share Posted January 8, 2011 Hi, Would anybody be willing to e-mail me privately with any info regarding positive experiences with endocrinology consultants based in the North West UK, particularly the Greater Manchester area. Many thanks. Jo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 Hi Jas - first, did you receive the list of doctors who will prescribe synthetic combination of T4 and T3, T3 alone or natural thyroid extract, which I attached to my last message to you? Such a pity you couldn't attend. The conference went amazingly well and we had over 100 attendees. I think the same as your husband, if you have a good doctor, then he is going to listen to you and respect your wishes and work with you to help you regain your normal health. I would tell him that you have joined Thyroid Patient Advocacy and that a lot of our members who remained ill on levothyroxine only therapy are regaining their normal health on the active thyroid hormone T3, either synthetic or natural thyroid extract - because they found the mainly INACTIVE thyroid hormone was not working for them, because they were unable to convert it to T3 for many and varied reasons. Tell him that because you remain ill on T4 only, that YOU have made up your mind to take the advice of a doctor extremely experienced in the field on thyroid disease and start a trial of T3 and that you hope he would monitor your treatment, with a view, at the end of the day, to prescribing this for you if it proves successful. Tell him that you are happy to be referred to an endocrinologist but that you would like it to be a doctor of YOUR choice because you realise that many doctors have diabetes as a speciality, and not thyroid disease. You WILL know whether treatment using the active thyroid T3 is working for you or not - and you will know whether it is not, so don't worry about how you will be able to tell. We should not allow our doctors who are ignorant about the workings of the greater thyroid system to look after our health, they are causing us more harm than good, so it is up to us to take our thyroid health into our own hands and tell our doctors how we need it to be treated. Those who are getting their health back are mainly those who are looking after themselves, and this is a fact. It can be done, and is being done. Ask loads of questions and if you don't get answers, keep asking, and asking and asking. Luv - Sheila Thank you so much for your reply, i was hoping to meet you yesterday and congratulate you on the amazing work you put in to helping people like me. I didn't think i was going to get a reply this quick and when i checked my account this morning, i shed a few tears. I really wish you all the happiness in the world sheila and hope that god is looking down and acknowledging the work you are doing.....wining the lottery might be a nice little reward....:} Ive already spoken to my doctor, and he is aware that i came to see Dr Peatfield, but i don't know whether to tell him im changing my meds? My Doctor is actually very good, which i'm surprised about my self beacuse i didn't think he'd listen, but i don't know how he'll react about this? My husband has said i need to tell him, but i'm not quite sure? He has agreed to let me see the Endo of my choice, so i suppose he might be ok.
