here are my blood results from 2015 (when I felt quite well) to now, I feel I am not getting any better although have tried everything I can.
I am on nature throid at the moment (Armour was great but then seemed to work less well and cost an arm and a leg)
Any help regarding how my bloods look would be great, my GP is very unhappy I am on natural thyroxine and does not discuss with me much about my bloods just that the tsh is too low.
