Is it possible to give some background history as there's none on your Profile?

If you've had a blood test recently can you get a print-out from the surgery with the ranges so that members can respond.

If you've not had a recent blood test, request one but ask for TSH, T4, T3, Free T4 and Free T3 as well as thyroid antibodies. The test should be the earliest possible, fasting. GP but lab may not do all of them but, if you can afford it, you can get a home pin-prick test for those not taken.

Your GP should definitely test B12, Vit D, iron, ferritin and folate.

Get a print-out of your results with the ranges and post for comments.

The aim is a TSH of around 1 with no symptoms.
