Should I ask to go up on my levothyroxine dosage?
Hi everyone! As suggested, I followed everyone's advice regarding the blood test, and also I've been taking the levothyroxine earlier (leaving more of a gap before eating or taking other medications) for a month, and my latest results are: Serum free T4 level 12.0 pmol/L [7.9 - 14.4] Normal 05 Apr

I've just changed to the igennus b12 sublingual as I get on very well with their super-b complex. reading the label I notice it contains methylcobalamin, adenosylcobalamin and hydroxocobalamin, the previous b12 supp I used didn't have hydroxocobalamin - what is it?
