Should I ask to go up on my levothyroxine dosage?
My ferritin,
vitamin
D,
folic
acid
, and
B12
are now optimal. I have been experiencing a lot more anxiety lately, but my other symptoms are all still there. Should I now ask my GP to increase my dosage? I've gone up to 67.6kg now, so should I be on around 100mcg of levothyroxine? Thank you

Thyroid Blood Test Results
I had my blood test at 10.30am and I’m also taking
vitamin
B12
,
folic
acid
, and iron supplements as I’ve been low on those before, though the doctor hasn’t tested my levels for any of those issues in a while.

Hello. I found the helpful post with b12 supplies and have ordered panpharma b12. I hope I've got it right! I used the code so should be ok I'm just very anxious and over thinking everything 🙃 I cant find the info where to get the needles etc from. I plan to do SC and I'm very confused with it all!

Dr agrees to test B12 but not blood test...
Hi All, on going (20 years) of discussion with GP about exhaustion. He agreed to injections for a while but that stopped during Covid. I've injected myself for a bit. Now he has agreed to do further test (as blood comes back a huge number because I am injecting!). I think the test may be homocysteine

temperature/anxiety and excess urination.
so I’ve just had a second lot of loading doses. All was going well however I got sick towards the end of these last week. Before I got sick all my B12 symptoms were clearing up completely. but now the urination frequency has returned with extreme tiredness, anxiety like I’ve never felt before and crying

”Placebo effect”
my doctor just told me it’s placebo effect having tiredness, pins and needles, dizziness etc before having my injection at the 12 week point. I’ve never gotten more frustrated and angry at a doctor on the phone in my life. He also said b12 levels don’t drop until after 2 years? How do people get their

B12 and anxiety
Just posted but forgot to add this.. Since loading doses still having headaches, the pins and needles have stopped but I feel weird I think it's anxiety my whole body feels like it's vibrating best I can describe. Is this normal for the loading doses to cause anxiety?

Neurology Doc advice
saw neurology consultant few days ago re the MRI scan I had after a stroke last year. And when I mentioned how my memory banks were badly affected and also said I was getting 2 monthly injections of B12 he told me that B12 would improve my memory losses so hopefully I can get my Doc to agree to more

How overcome a high B12 test from when I must supplement to function?
Both intrinsic factor and parietal antibody tests were positive ("abnormal") with B12 >2000. Methylmalonic Acid is normal at .28. I have Hashimoto's and other autoimmune conditions and I recently learned my mom was being treated for PA when she passed. After suffering so many of the symptoms of PA for

Wrong time to reduce SSRIs?
I was on 150mg of sertraline, I cut it down to 125mg earlier this year. A few days ago I cut the dose down to 100mg. I am having a few withdrawal symptoms, nausea, tired, bit shaky, upset tummy, etc. Which I expected. Nothing too bad, but I’m just wondering if I would be better to wait until I have started
