Lab ranges - I don't get it?
E.g. a
ferritin
level of 90-100 or a particular TSH level. But they don't give a reference range. So this leads me to think that that test result optimal level is standard no matter what the lab reference range is.

Vitamins D and K7
I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism nine months ago, and prescribed 50mcg levothyroxine per day. No mention was made of Vitamin D results or any related issues like ferritin,or B12. I take Vitamin D 2200iu throughout Winter, and, as of October 23, after some online research, added Vitamin K2, 100 ug.

Iron supplement help
Have made a few posts here about hair loss/ low ferritin. I have ordered the three arrows iron repair to see if I can increase ferritin. Can anyone tell me from my recent results, if one 20mg capsule a day would push my other results over the range? Or would it take a much larger amount? I also take

B12 by 💉, . . . & synergistic nutrients to consider ! 😑
Hello ! 😊 The first step on the B12 💉 now taken - although seeing improvements, with a even twice-a-week frequency may take . . . weeks or months . . . in the case of a v long term medical condition ? So far, not feeling too different either way - & in all, the 1000ug was pretty much a cinch, n⛔

Iron Levels
I am a 74-year-old woman living in New Zealand. I was on Ropinirole for restless legs for approximately 3 years. Augmentation set in and I saw his forum went to my doctor who has changed my medication to Pregabalin. Currently on 50mg per day as I weaned off Ropinirole (completely weaned off for 3 nights

B12 only half the battle -- and an odd symptom
Back story: I was B12, Folate, Vit. D deficient with extremely low Ferritin (9). These deficiencies have been going on for years and docs were pretty clueless, made me feel like I was a drama queen about it all, and I had an allergy to B12 shots. Was finally sent to a hematologist who was ON this -

I am tapering ropinerol and am now down from 3 mg to 1 mg.

Now I want to get totally off it. my ferritin when tested a month

Further info on blood panel
Hello! I posted a couple of weeks back with some questions about low B12 investigations and was about to have a very full and detailed blood panel. I've got some further info from my blood tests. I don't have a copy yet, they're on the way, so I'll have to be vague about actual numbers for some of them

Falling asleep after taking meds in the morning
Hey all, Does anyone experience fatigue after taking thyroid meds in the morning? I take 90 t4 and 23 t3 in Armour and Thybon in the morning and I am very tired after taking it. And then at 2 pm I am very fatigued again and potentially in the evening around 7 pm. Trying to understand what I'm doing

Hi I'm just starting this journey of information. I am subclinical hypo - last test TSH 6.83. I've got a lot of symptoms and i'm unsure whether it's all down to thyroid, or if I am vitamin deficient, or if I am starting another fun journey of perimenopause. I'm vegetarian, my periods are regular and

Advice on Tests Please
Dear Forum Members, I wonder if you advise which tests are needed for PA. In recent years my ferritin has been below 30, folate deficient and B12 on the low side. I have been self supplementing with supplements and levels have raised but I do not feel any better. So far, I have had ‘[i]serum[/i]’
