My latest iron test has come back with my ferritin remaining low despite 3 months of trying to raise it.
I've been given good advice on here about how to raise it by eating the dreaded liver. But I am going to go and see my GP about it too because I've had a problem with ferritin for 20 years and I could do with knowing why.
I increased my thyroid dose to 75mcg this morning and felt rubbish for a few hours. My TSH is 10.3 and yet my Free T's are just below middle and people here think this is odd. I'm wondering if it's down to the low ferritin.
My question is does anyone have any links to "official" guidelines I can show my GP about the need in thyroid patients for ferritin to be 70-80?
