I've been diagnosed with Hashimoto's for the last 9 years and I just had my latest blood test results back. As you can see, with high TSH and low FT3, I'm probably on too low a dose of Levothyroxine (currently 100mcg). Fingers crossed that FT3 will rise once I'm on 125mcg and I'll feel better. Current symptoms include: poor sleep, dizziness, low heart rate, fatigue.
My question is: Should I also supplement with B12, Ferritin and Folic Acid to bring those values up, or will they balance out once I'm on a higher dose of Levo?
Thanks for your help!
