Primary Hypothyroidism with Hashis
Hello everyone, thank you for all your informative posts, I wish I had gotten more involved in monitoring my own thyroid status over these past 28 years! I took 2 Advanced Thyroid Function Blood Tests with Medichecks on 29/3/23 and 29/11/23. Please could you help with your observations of the 2 tests

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

Just had a Medicheck Active B12 result of 89.9 pmol range 37 -188 It stated that this was optimal. Do you agree? seemed to me although adequate maybe would not be classed as optimal?? I do not currently take B vitamins but are currently on the loading winter dose of Vitamin D as prescribed by GP

interpreting results
Hi everyone, I’ve recently ordered a blood test to check my TSH, T4 and T3 levels. I’m also having my antibodies, ferritin, vit D, B12 and folate checked aswell. I’m fine interpreting the results of the vitamins and minerals, and I also understand that the higher the TSH the more underactive you are

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.
