Have you had your thyroid correctly tested ? When your thyroid hormones are low it can affect the uptake of vitamins and minerals. So the CORRECT Thyroid Testing must be done and not just the TSH - also the FT4 and FT3 along with the Anti-bodies TPO & Tg.

Your B12 - Folate - Ferritin - VitD must also be tested as they are all so important and GP's often peer at their computers and declare you normal/fine/OK - when your results are in range. It is WHERE you are in the range that is so important - and for you to feel well. B12 is good around 500 - folate and Ferritin are good mid-tange and VitD around 100.
