Ellieb774,

3 months ago ferritin, iron, transferrin and MCV indicated potential iron deficiency anaemia.

Folate is below range. Your GP should prescribe 5mg folic acid for 2-3 months.

B12 is low in range. If you have symptoms in b12deficiency.info/signs-an... go to healthunlocked.com/pasoc as they're the experts on folate and B12 deficiency.

VitD is optimal between 100 - 150. 6,000iu D3 should be sufficient to raise vitD. I would reduce dose to 6,000iu alternate days in 8 weeks and retest in March.

Take vitD and iron 4 hours away from Levothyroxine.
