First day back on the beta blocker, this time half dose of 1.25mg. Managed walk into town OK. Imagine if you can, school outfitters on the last Saturday before the kids go back to school.....we only wanted iron on name tags but some families had obviously decided that this was the best day to shop for

Supplement Advice
I'll try to cut a very long story short but on a hunch that I was hypothyroid I took a blood test with Thriva back in March after a number of years of infertility. Results were a surprise to me and came back: TSH 0.01 range 0.27-4.3 FT4 31.67 range 12-23 T4 176.4 range 64.5 - 142 FT3 11.8 range 3.1

Folate bloods
I had a recent blood test which showed my folate level to be 9.1. I didnt get any ranges from the surgery but when I phoned them yesterday they said that my level needed to be above 3.8. My friend who is a nurse in the same area where I live gave me a range of 4.5-45.3 nm0l/l. I am already anaemic
