Help with results please :)
Hi and thanks for reading in advance. Iāve recently had bloods done after a small increase in Levo and Iām not understanding why they are more raised since the increase. I have had a few things all going on at the same time for the last 2.5 years, menopause, vit D deficiency(now in range), B12 deficient

what is the desired T4:T3 ratio? (because I donāt think this is it)
I just put all my latest lab results in the calculator and said āYIKESā! What ratio should I be shooting for? This doesnāt seem right ā and I sure donāt feel well. Having the percentages really helps me understand just how low I am on B12 & D! Thanks always. - T4:T3 Ratio: 0.417ā - Free T4: 1.25

Medichecks Results and Advice please
Good morning everyone - following my last post when I was suffering a backslide from my previous post when I was feeling so much better - you recommended me to get a full private test - initially to get a T3 reading, but as I was unsure of my Folate /Vit D etc I went for the full Advanced Thyroid test

My doctor has said my neck thyroid reading is ok but my ābrain reading is slowerā Does this make sense to anyone? Also, how do people take iron and vitamin d as I have read not to take it near medication

Kindly requesting help again
unfortunately it now seems I have a diagnosis of Rheumatoid Arthritis as well. Iāve been really unwell with severe pain. Still waiting for an NHS appointment. Paid to see a Private Rheumatologist and Iāve also had an ultrasound scan. With all that being said, because of all the different inflammatories

Vitamin D Status & Cancer Mortality
New German study of British data below [1]. I was born on the SW coast of England at latitude 50 degrees. (Edinburgh, Scotland is at 56 degrees.) St. John's in Newfoundland, Canada, is at latitude 47.6 degrees, so one might expect the average Brit to have a much poorer vitamin D status than the

TSH conundrum
I'm a 72yr old male. Diagnosed with hypothyroidism 15 years ago. Told I had autoimmune thyroid disease following blood test showing high antibodies. Currently on 125 msg thyroxine. Dr has never tested anything apart from TSH and occasionally FreeT4 and based my medication on these results. Fortunately

Vit D.
Quick question. How long does it take for Vit D to hit your system, any ideas? My Dr suggested I double my dose as itās a bit on the low side so Iām taking 4000iu with Vit K 2 MK-7. Iāve done this for a week and Iāve just noticed my muscles arenāt aching so much and Iāve got a little more energy.

Adcal thoughts please
I just wondered what the experts thoughts are on taking Adcal when you donāt have thyroid problems? My 80 year old mother broke her hip 3 years ago, had a Dexa scan which was fine, although was subsequently told theyāre pointless for someone of her age. Iāve got her on higher dose vitamin D and K2

Vitamin D test
I have been taking Vitamin D+K2 for a few months now, while in Tesco today I noticed a at home vitamin D test so I brought one. I have just done the test and it showed only 1 line which says vitamin D levels are excessive and I should contact my doctor, how reliable are these at home finger price tests
