Do you have Hashis or Graves? Your antibodies are high. Just a couple of thoughts. Try an auto-immune paleo diet and/or look at Low Dose Naltrexone. I don't have antibody problems, so can't really comment further.

Hi sorry - i've got Hasimotos - the results are from a blood doctor in Cyprus - you have to get your own blood tests then find a doctor to tell you what they say.

Get your vit b12 to high in the range for a kickoff

Ditto vit d

Vitamin D is within the range quoted.

But I 100% agree about B12. That is way too low. Indeed, I would hope a doctor would offer injections of hydroxocobalamin - though what forms of B12 are available in Cyprus, I do not know.
