Does this sound like Hashimoto's please?
I have had periods of diffuse hair loss, (eventually diagnosed as Telogen effluvium with crashing
iron
levels too). I am now starting to lose the outer edge of my eyebrows, my skin and scalp itches and as I say, my energy levels and mood can feel low some days.

Is it B12 anemia? I’m confused.
Their report suggested B12 was borderline insufficient, and more
iron
studied would be advised. I approached my GP and they completely disagreed and said there was no need for any further investigation, so I didn’t pursue it. My question is, should I be concerned and push for more/difference tests?

Another update - salivary cortisol and more thoughts on what's going on
So far it is looking like being hypo causes my low libido (came back on more t3 trial recently, so no menopause), lowish estrogen, lowish
iron
, slightly over range glucose at 5.7-5.8, lowish in range sodium etc etc. Hope this helps someone.

confused about bowels
after my baby boy was born in May 2023 I also got the piles but probably once every few months , I was on
iron
tablets while pregnant due to mild anemia deficiency. I’d have constipation on these and would cause piles to bleed.

codeine
My
iron
levels are very low and I’m on the NHS waiting list for a transfusion. I’m hoping that once my
iron
levels are okay I’ll be able to stop the codeine but I’m worried about addiction in the meantime.

Thyroid and anaemia
I have just been told I have serious anaemia and will have an
iron
injection on Thursday. Can you tell me if there's any connection, or contraindication with my hypothyroidism? Thank you

Tiny Levo increase but FT4 well over range
Wouldn’t be surprised if
iron
and B12 slightly low but the test failed so I’m waiting for a replacement kit. I take vit d, k2, magnesium, omega 3 …..and Thorne b complex which I stopped four days before test. Looks like I’ll have to reduce dose back to 85mcg and test again in a couple of months.

Vitamin/supplements
I know
iron
, and vitamin B12 are important, I wondered if a specific Thyriod supplement was useful. I found this one, does anyone else take this? https://heynutrition.com/products/thyroid-complex?
