Testing the intrinsic factor is to diagnose pernicious anaemia. If it is you will have to have B12 injections to top you up quickly. Your B12 is very low indeed. That can make you feel quite unwell. Vitamin B12 is very important hormone.

Once he fixes all your deficient minerals/vitamins you may feel much better.

Re your thyroid hormone results, and because the GPs TSH is 2.47 he will say you don't have a problem take note of this link.

The above website will tell you all you need to know. Your B12 needs to be at the TOP of the range.

You NEED a GOOD B complex when taking B12 - Thorne Research are GOOD ! It contains Methyl-Folate instead of Folic Acid - OK more expensive but could be better for your body.....

You should be taking 5000 IU's of D to bring you up to OPTIMAL.

Can I suggest you look at The Pernicious Anemia website? They have a fantastic telephone helpline who will help you in getting your b12,needs addressed. Martin Hooper the chairman has also written a fantastic book about his own experiences & help with getting the best treatment. It is vital this is addressed as soon as possible as very low levels of B12 can lead to nerve damage. Am glad they are testing intrinsic factor -quite right!! You will need to address a variety of othe factors as Martz wisely advises. Lack of b12 also interferes with thyroid as well -though both things can & do run together -it's likely they will address the b12 first as they have established there is a clear problem. A TSH of 2plus is considered normal -though in some countries would be regarded as suspicious.

Hope you get sorted soon but be prepared for it to take time. Hugs x
