Stefcon,

TSH is low, FT4 is in the upper range and FT3 is quite good for someone taking Levothyroxine. Thyroid antibodies are negative for autoimmune thyroiditis (Hashimoto's).

Ferritin is optimal halfway way through range so yours is good.

Vitamin D is insufficient not deficient. I've edited your results so it reads easier. I would buy D3 softgel capsules and take 5,000iu daily for 8 weeks and then reduce to 5,000iu alternate days and retest in May. Take vitD 4 hours away from Levothyroxine.

B12 is low. Ask for advice on B12 from healthunlocked.com/pasoc.

Folate is good.

Thank you for your quick reply! If my TSH is low what do you suggest? I take 75mcg and 100mcg on alternate days.

Stefcon,

I didn't mean TSH is low in a bad way. It's fine so no need to alter your dose.

Your TSH is fine. Just be wary of doctors particularly your GP saying it is too low and wanting to bring it up. If you feel OK then don't let them meddle with your dose of levo.
