Extreme fatigue

[Angie56]

Hi there ,

Please can anyone offer some advice . I had an iron transfusion about five weeks ago which totally floored me for a week . My consultant about two weeks ago prescribed vitamin b1 b2 b 12 I am having some good days but not that many . My brain fog is still bad my work colleagues think I'm putting it on which I'm not . I still have dizziness extreme fatigue migraines every day and nitemares at night . I am taking 75mg levothyroxine in the morning along with 10mg t3 and then the b vitamins .

I cannot stop crying at nite and sometimes during the day when I'm not working . I'm only 38 but feel like a hundred will it ever end lol. Many thanks for taking the time to read this really appreciate it and all your kind advice in the past thanks Angie

Angie56,

If you post recent thyroid results and ranges members will be able to advise whether you are optimally medicated on Levothyroxine.

It will probably take 6-8 weeks before you start feeling the benefit of the B vits your consultant has prescribed. Make sure you take the supplements at least 2 hours away from your Levothyroxine and T3.

Hi Clutter ,

Thanks so much for your kind reply I appreciate it so much . Sorry I didn't realise as I take my levothyroxine first thing in the morning and then I have been taking the bvitamins and berocca and t3 together about half or an hour later . Please can you tell me can I take t3 with levothyroxine as I have been doing that also . I got the iron infusion about five weeks ago but it doesn't seem to have worked either . Many thanks Clutter in advance

Angie56,

You can take T3 and Levothyroxine together but take the other supplements 2 hours away (4 hours for calcium, iron and vitamin D).

I hope the iron infusion is having a delayed effect and symptoms improve soon.
