I thought my B12 stopped working, but it was thyroid problem

I have been worrying my injections are not working , but got my thyroid tested and TSH was 0.04 indicating I might been hyper or hyper swing, ft4 was normal in midrange and at the moment ft3 not tested yet.

I have felt so rotten physically with bad muscles and I kept blaming B12 not working, just kept pushing myself despite high heart rate. Had all classic symptoms of hyper, tremors, palpitations, loose stool, sweating, not able to sleep.

Thanks! I feel good (even though bad physically 😄 ) that it was not B12 that failed me. And I figured it out before SI as it probably had not feel any better and I would have given up.

Yeah, it's a relief! Wasn't imagining , my nurse booked me a specialist and reckon it's probably transient hyper as I have been hypo in past. Asked if I can manage until the specialist as it's so tricky to treat until we are absolutely sure what is going on.
