I am trying to find my optimal levels.

See below the changes made following these results on 17.1.18 and tested again on 20.4.18.

Results from tests 17.1.18

TSH 2.89 mu/L (0.35 - 4.94)

FT4 14.5 pmol/L (9.0 - 19.0)

VitD 24 nmol/L Severe deficiency

B12 333 ng/L (150.0 - 883.0)

Folate 6.3 ug/L ( 3.1 - 20.5)

Ferritin 77 ug/L (10.0 - 204.0)

GP increased Levothyroxine from 100mg - 125mg

Prescribed loading dose of Vit D

4000iu daily

I added K2 Better You spray

I began eating liver once a week

Took Sanatogen A-Z Complete Multivitamin stopped after 8 weeks having read on this forum better to take a good B Complex. I ordered Thorn B Complex but couldn’t cope with the smell or the size of the capsules!

Getting out in the sun when it shone!

Started to feel some symptoms subsiding and more myself.

Latest test results 20.4.18

FT4 18.5 pmol/L ( 9.00 - 19.00)

Folate 12.7 ug/L (3.10 - 20.50)

Vit D 104 nmol/L Replete 70- 200

My Ferritin wasn’t tested unfortunately.

I am seeing GP next week and would welcome anyone’s thoughts on what I should discuss on trying to get my optimal levels

I had Hashimoto’s confirmed on 21.2.18

Thyroid peroxidase 932 iu/ml

(0.00 - 6.00)

I have been reducing my gluten intake but plan to go gluten free very soon to see if I can reduce the antibodies.

In advance many thanks for your thoughts.
