Re: Can anyone throw any light on this

Hi Kathleen

This could be nothing to do with what you are saying but I was changed from

Goldshield 25mcg to Wockhardt 25mcg (T4) and I did not feel as well. I even

asked at the pharmacy if there was any difference in the two as the latter one

was smaller in size to look at and they said no difference at all. They said

one machine compresses more than the other and the Godshield were not available

now. However I am getting Goldshield again through my prescription.

Just thought I would mention this.

HI STEVIE

Have you noticed the ingrediants are a little different in the WOCKHARDT

thyroxine, and the side effects are slightly different.

I have decided to try dales thyroxine as its non allergenic, and by this I

shall know if there is a problem with fillers.

My GP disputes the problem as being due to SULPHITES, and also states that the

NHS do NOT do allergy testing. IS THIS TRUE?

My GP also said that I would feel tired without thyroxine, but I said to him I

feel tired taking it usually after eating.
