      Hi Marey

      Thank you for invite, not sure if I will be able to do it, especially if it is 48 hours.  Please let me know how it goes though, and perhaps I may be able to do it when it is more convenient.

    Hi, I have secondary Hypo-thyroidism, because I have Hypo-pituitarism. My pituitary barely does anything now,having had a tumour removed from it in 1997. Therefore, the pituitary no longer sends signals to the thyroid to do its work, so I have no TSH.Everything that the pituitary previously did is now replaced with some sort of medication, be it a tablet or injection.
