[Jlg61]

Hi Everyone,

I have recently had test would really appreciate advice.

I have been diagnosed with B12 deficiency and currently have 11 weekly injections, I have been suffering from increased hair loss over the last few months hence decided to have thyroid check. Test results:

Tsh 1.99

Free Throxine. 15

Total throxine (T4). 93.5

Free T3. 4.18

Thyroglobulin antibody 65.2

Thyroid peroxidase antibodies. 129

Any advice would really be appreciated, I know B12 can cause hair loss but seems to be shedding at an alarming rate plus other symptoms body aches.

You're confusing me here, this isn't your post. It doesn't take very much with my brain fog!

There is a few deficiencies that could cause hair loss, have you had iron and vitamin D tested recently?, as it's not your blood results in the thread.

As I now know that they are your results, yes vitamin D is too low. According to the vitamin D council it should be around 100 to be a healthy level. And yes, low vitamin D can cause hair loss and body aches.
