after last weeks post I have eventually got an appointment with the doctor of my choice at GP surgery, but now I don't know what bloods to ask for!! TSH has been done repeatedly and always around the 3.8 mark in range of 0.35-4.5. So therefore I need FT3 + FT4, what else is a good marker. Please help, appointment at 11.15am

If I'm correct from reading on here the blood tests to ask for (on top of what you have already mentioned) are; Ferritin, Vitamin D, Vitamin B12, Folate, Thyroid Antibodies. I think this right, but hopefully someone else will come along if I'm not!
