Help Please - need to sort out Adrenal supplement and Thyroid meds!
I have been on Levo for over 21 years, (100mcg), but recently, (don't know whether the menopause has "kick started" anything, am 57), have been feeling more tired, and the "brain fog" is worse. I was diagnosed with "Fibromyalgia" in 2009, and so they say that's why I am tired. :confused: I started

I was informed by the nurse at Guys that the bloods are likely a bit of a fluke or an issue with the lab, because typically they would see a positive ANA with Lupus not just DsDNA and I'd probably be referred
