List of doctors for Jeanne

[Guest guest]

Dear Jeanne,

I am sorry it has taken a day or two to get back to

you with this information but my computer crashed and

I've had to wait to get it fixed before I could access

this folder.

Some of the details here may be out of date but an up

to date list is available from Thyroid UK.

http://www.thyroiduk.org/

You may have to pay a membership fee but I don't think

it is very expensive.

anticipate would be abnormal, as they have been taking

thyroid preparations. It would then be justified to

prescribe thyroid replacement. "
