I have been taking prednisolone for PMR for nearly 4 weeks and have my first review this week - I'm feeling fab since starting on pred - not taking any supplements yet - should I be asking about calcium and vitamin D at my review appointment?

Potential underactive thyroid
hi, I’ve had to go private for fertility investigations after loss and have had some more intensive thyroid testing done after the NHS advised no concerns. I’m hoping someone can give me some guidance based on my results as I’m quite lost with what to do/where to go next. TSH levels Oct 2019:

Test results
Morning, I got my test results from a private test. Can anyone advise if I need a levo increase? I generally feel well apart from hair loss which I've now read can be because my vitamin D is low. My ferritin has decreased after initially rising. No idea why as I'm eating pretty well.

please can I have some advice on my latest results?
Please could I have some advice? These are my results today. I’m on 125mg Levo and 12.5mg t3. I’m still absolutely exhausted, gaining weight and hair falling out, etc. I’ve optimised my b12, ferritin, vit d and folate and am maintaining them at least 75% through range so not sure what to tweak next?

Zinc and Copper Deficiencies
Hello, All! Well it's always something - isn't it? Before I begin - a refresher - I have AMAG, PA; take B12 sublinguals daily along with 500mg folic acid daily, iron twice a week - low dose, vitamin D daily and thyroid med daily. Because of my inability to absorb B12 I thought maybe other nutrients

Latest results
Hello, would anyone be kind enough to help me with my latest results? I have had an underactive thyroid since my early 20s and I have also been diagnoses with Hashimoto's, but do these results indicate I have now gone overactive? I had a full hysterectomy a year and a half ago and I'm not sure if that

Hi Guys I have had B12 above reference range (NHS UK so probably a very outdate reference range system) GP told me it was high a year ago. Nobody had told me! I don't take any B12 supplements or multi vitamins ( I take Vit D and Vit c separately daily only) I also have "borderline" full blood count
