It was the VitaminD I cut it back to twice a week and the T went down the Vitamin

FT3 at bottom of range
Hi, so 6 weeks on 75mcg levo (50mcg Accord 25mcg Workhardt) and I have got some test results. I had no choice but to have two different brands and risk risk the migraine, as that was all they would give me. Weight still piling on, no energy, joints aching, insomnia and depressed! FT3 3.1 pmol/L

PV - Folic Acid and Vit D
Hi Please excuse if this has been asked before, I’m sure it has but can’t find the post 😬 I have PV and had blood done at Dr recently and was told I needed to take folic acid and Vit D. I take HU which has recently been reduced by 1 tablet a week and last bloods were HCT 38, Hb 13.4, WBC 7.6

Latest results and problems raising dose
TL;DR - should I continue to try increasing my NDT dose slightly (from 1.75 to 2 grains per day, split dosing) based on the test results below, though I am getting some symptoms after increase (mild anxiety, hot flushes and sweats, and palpitations)? Further info/details below the results Inflammation

Latest reults
hi I’ve just had my latest thyroid panel results, numbers seem slightly better for antibodies but still higher than they should. Ft4 & Ft3 slightly higher than last time but still not optimal?
