Hi Kevan54868,
I think by my own experience that it is much better you treat your thyroid problem with an endocrinologist. In the beginning I had been treated by a GP doctor and it didn't work good. After an appointment with an endocrinologist everything got better. They know better about this decease than a GP doctor.
I live in USA and each country has theyr restrictions about medications. I hope you can have T3 replacement where you live.
I hope you get better soon.

I had RAI in February and after a few weeks felt better. I am not taking any meds at the moment. My latest blood tests apparently show that I am still somewhat hyper but I feel OK. I see my endo at the end of next month. I did put a few pounds on initially after the treatment but then dropped again, I do feel well though. Good luck with getting your medication sorted.
