Ayrshirelass13, If I were you I'd ask to see your thyroid results and the ranges (figures in brackets after results).

Folate 17 is good, but B12 358 is low. You might want to supplement methylcobalamin in between injections.

Ferritin 8 is very low. Perhaps you could increase your iron. Take it with 500mg-1,000mg vitamin C to aid absorption and minimise constipation. If you have difficulty tolerating iron supplements consider cooking with the Cambodian Iron Fish healthunlocked.com/thyroidu....

Your ferritin is critically low. Is there a possibility that you have a problem with absorption in your gut eg Coeliac? I couldn't get ferritin levels up despite taking high doses of iron - eventually I was tested for Coeliac. Low vitamins is a symptom
