Vitamins D and K7
I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism nine months ago, and prescribed 50mcg levothyroxine per day. No mention was made of Vitamin D results or any related issues like ferritin,or B12. I take Vitamin D 2200iu throughout Winter, and, as of October 23, after some online research, added Vitamin K2, 100 ug.

Reassurance about taking T3 during pregnancy
Hi All I’m just looking for some reassurance if anyone else has continued on T3 during pregnancy. When I tested positive my ft4 was 17.5 (12-22) but my ft3 tanked from 4.4 to 3.1(3.1-6.8) and all my hypo symptoms were terrible. (Previous ft4 was17.1 and ft3 4.4 so I was still probably under medicated

Stuck. Help Plz.
Hi, thanks for all the info here. I’ve been reading for hours, think I’ve tried to absorb too much too quickly as my brain feels like it’s going to pop! I’ve been feeling nauseous with low pain headaches for a month so had a GP apt last week. Bloods were done and all appears normal apart from thyroid

B Complex and sleep problems
Stopped taking the Folic acid prescribed and opted for Thorne Basic B Complex. Was taking one a day in water (capsules too big for me). Felt great for a week and then developed a problem with sleep. Not so much insomnia, just difficult to get off to sleep and then having vivid dreams.Is this an effect

Dr’s appointment this morning to discuss dose increase for my daughter, ‘urgent’ help required 🙏
Good morning everyone, My daughter (17, nearly 18) was diagnosed with hypothyroidism is the summer, initially prescribed 25mcg which was obviously inadequate so she requested dose increase which was granted. She’s been on 50mcg since beginning of September, she initially felt an improvement in symptoms

tired and breathless
I have PA and Si every 2 weeks. Recently I’ve felt very tired, really exhausted, and breathless on the slightest exertion. I sort of “gulp” air sometimes. I remember feeling like this when I was diagnosed. My GP told me a few months ago to stop the folic acid supplement as my level was high.

Folate and B12
May I just ask what are the consequences of treating folate before B12? Is it case of results being skewed or symptoms worsening?
