I have worked VERY hard to get my bloods to Normalise after changing to Armour. Above are the latest results compared to a month ago, i am still feeling very fatigues with aches in my arm daily. i have reduced the armour to one grain a day for the last 4 days as i was very tired at the weekend and felt that i was going over (Hyper).
Please can someone advise if i need to go back on 2 grains or stay on one for another few days Please as i am very confused

Crinfly, Wow, what a difference a month of replacement has made. Apart from the vast improvement in thyroid results your creatinine and urea are also improved. Symptoms often lag behind good biochemistry by a couple of months so you should feel gradual improvement in fatigue and muscle aches.
You weren't overmedicated on 2 grains as FT4 and FT3 are within range. I suggest you increase to 1.5 grains and if you need to increase in future do so in 1/4 grain increments so you don't miss your 'sweet spot'.
Low/deficient vitamin D is common in hypothyroid patients and can cause musculoskeletal pain, fatigue and low mood. Ask your GP to test or order a private test from City Assays via thyroiduk.org.uk/tuk/testin... I think the kit is now £28.
B12 <500 is sub-optimal, PA Society advise 1,000 is optimal. Supplement 1,000mcg methylcobalamin and take a B Complex vitamin to keep the other B vits balanced. Folate looks good.
Ferritin is also sub-optimal. Advice varies as to whether 70-90 is optimal or halfway through range. Supplement Ferrous Fumarate and take each tablet with 500mg-1,000mg vitamin C to aid absorption and minimise constipation. Retest in 4-6 months and be sure to take iron 4 hours away from NDT.
