Any reason not to start supplements?
Hello. I already take levothyroxine but went to the gp feeling generally unwell. I got a call to say b12 157 (range 197-771) ferritin 10 (range 13-150) folate 2.7 (range 3.9-26.8) hb 118(range 115-160) and that I’d have to start supplements. But none were prescribed but mentioned doing coeliac bloods

My iron was very low so the iron tablets aren't getting absorbed so I'm back to iron infusions. My folate and b12 levels both very good. Guess it truly is a balancing act. My horrid cold is

Coeliac Blood tests
I am a vegetarian and eat only a small amount of fish but a huge variety of veggies and fruit etc. I have just had this years tests and all were fine except my iron which had dropped to 11. Since diagnosis I have had an issue with iron levels - originally on daily tablets but they made me very sick
