Could I have Hashimoto's?
I've been given some very useful information about possible B12 deficiency by the Pernicious Anaemia community, but I'm wondering whether I could have Hashimoto's which is causing deficiency in Vit D, Vit B12 and ferritin. I have Rheumatoid Arthritis, and neurological symptoms (pins and needles in feet

Advice appreciated
Hello everyone I have recently joined Thyroid UK. I was diagnosed hypothyroid in 2010 and have been maintained on a dose of 150mcg of Levothyroxine. My GP reduced me down to 125 mcg in June 2016 when my TSH result came back as 0.17 (normal range 0.35-3.50mU/L). It was repeated in Dec 2016 and came back

Blood results
Hello, I recently had these results back, I'm seeing a GP tomorrow I don't really understand what they mean. I'm also keen to get my vitamins iron etc to a good level that might the help me to feel more normal. To do this would having a blood test through Bluehorzin be the best way to go? At the time
