Trying NDT for the first time - are you supposed to feel hypo?

Please help me understand these results.
I can see I'm deficient in vitamin d. I'm currently on Levo 100/125 alternate days. I take b12, zinc, magesium, d3, foli acid, selenium and a probiotic day. How do i improve my vit d? Do you think I'd benefit from adding some t3? Do the rest of the results look ok? Thank-you 😊

Blue Horizon Test Results - really worried
I saw a private doctor in February and have previously posted my blood test results from him and also NHS ones taken 2 weeks earlier. There was quite a big difference between the results. The private doctor put me on adrenal support and also gave me a thyroid support supplement which he said was similar

Need some knowledge of kidney issues....
I'm getting a bit concerned that for whatever reason my kidneys are complaining. I have high levels of T4 - latest was 22.73 (12 a 22) and slowly rising levels of T3 4.98 (3.1 a 6.8). I was going to maintain a dose of 150 / 125 mg levo (alternate nights) with 12.5 mg cynomel every night for a bit longer
