frustratingly ill :(
Diana's book is amazing and I bet it's changed many lives. So glad you found it - and found us. 
Welcome!
How daft that he won't test Vit D? Maybe he's afraid you'll be found to be very deficient (which you probably are!). Is there another doctor in the practice who might have more common sense?
When you get your results do please post them here and we'll tell you what we think! If you could post results and their ranges that's really helpful. How much Levo are you on at the moment?
the dr i saw is head of practise hun, never had any other bloods done than norm basic full bloods! an yet as a nation we r all prob lacking some VIT D an esp the illl as we dont get out as much as we would like to x thats just it i am on no meds an just trying to struggle on till i get the proof : ( do u understand when i mention these highs (hypo maybe) ??? not come across anyone else, it is affecting my life very much with friends an family! i feel so sorry for my kids i ave even thought bout going away till i am well, its not nice for them to see let alone b at ends of my mood swings bless em xx
Hypos do tend to get mood swings.
Have you had your antibodies tested - TPOab and Tgab? You could very well have autoimmune hypo and that would explain a lot. If your doctor won't test them, you could have then done privately. You should also have FT3 and vit B12.
hi i am just bout to put new post....thankyou x
they tried to block my T4 !!!!
Could it be thyroid?
Suddenly ill.
If Levo puts weight on, what other options are there.
Hypothyroidism
