I did my first private blood test in 2017 and the doctors remarks were to see my GP regarding treatment for an underactive thyroid. I was so pleased to finally have clarification

Questions about fatigue
I initially posted this to the B12 deficiency forum, and it was suggested that I post it here. I am in the USA. In the spring of 2021 I had been having periods of fatigue that would put me in bed for two or three days at a time, and then suddenly things would be better again. This was a repeating pattern
