Thankyou. The doctor id check my iron levels, I'm not sure about the others but I'm going today so will ask. I take vitamins that contain iron so if I was deficient then this may not be picked up. Thanks for replying

I have an Over Active Thyroid, and my hair was coming out in hand fulls. I was put on Carbimazole 20mg my hair loss slowed down, Unfortunately after only 3 weeks on this dose my next test showed my levels were improving so they halved my dose, I was stunned by how quickly I felt really ill (3 days) The on call gp saw me same day and increased my Carbimazole to 15mg. feeling better but hair still comes out when I brush my hair . All the Gp says is it will right itself when thyroid sorted out
