Seeking help...
Turned out it was a
vitamin
D
deficiency. A
vitamin
D
scrip and supplements fixed the problem. 2018: Fell out of tub on to butt. Three weeks later I start getting pins/needles in the feet (intermittent). This went away on its own after a while. In both of those cases I have EXTREME anxiety.

How often should you repeat DEXA scan if you have Osteopenia?
Spine -1.3 Hip -1.6 I was diagnosed with osteopenia and prescribed
vitamin
d
and calcium. I recently saw an endocrinologist about repeating the DEXA scan to see how things are now but he said they don't usually recommend them for people my age? I'm now 31. Is this correct?

What vitamin supplements to take alongside B12 injections?
What strength of
vitamin
D
and iron do I need to take to maintain my levels once my prescription finishes? Finally, more out of curiosity than anything else...

stopping vitamins before tests
hi everyone, I can’t remember if I have to stop my
vitamin
b12 and
D
before doing my medichecks test - the one that tests for t3, t4, tsh, folate, b12, D, ferritin and inflammation. I’m taking the vitamins in spray form now so no biotin - is there any other reason I have to stop before testing?

Any advice for a friend? Folate, ferritin and Vitamin D…
Hello… I have a friend who has been hypothyroid for decades, and is now late seventies. She has felt suddenly exhausted and put it down to life events, but had a FBC, which the GP said was ‘fine’. Having had such invaluable help from so many of you on here, I suggested she got the results emailed, and

Can of worms
I supplement with
vitamin
D
, B12, Magnesium,
vitamin
C and Omega 3. I am very petite at 5 foot one inch and weighing 47 kilos. Recently I had a blood test and all was fine apart from my GP almost having a heart attack regarding my suppressed TSH. She insisted I reduce my T4 by 25mcgs.

Any Help to break free of this rut I'm in??
I have tried adrenal supplements, iron supplements,
Vitamin
B's, Vit
D
with K2. I cannot get myself out of this funk, I honestly feel like I am just disappearing, fading away from life and it scares me. When I mention it to my Psych Nurse who I love it's like she isn't getting it.

Levo at least 30mins later… iron with my breakfast (30 mins after Levo) then the
vitamin
D
with my evening meal. Is it easier to take everything first thing then Levo on its own at bedtime.
