Help with test results please?

Please can someone help with this? Over the last few months I’ve been feeling exhausted, anxious and very up and down mood-wise. I’m usually a happy soul!

At first I thought of peri menopause but then thought of my Hashimotos.

Many thanks.

Are you on any thyroid 'meds'? Have you had thyroid autoimmune antibodies tested ( there are two, but if done on NHS normally TPO [ peroxide] tested, but this could be negative as the other, thyroglobulin, is positive)? These are the Hashimoto's tests; important to know as it often results in poor gut absorption, thus poor Vit/ min.levels, and problems maintaining them long term. D3 could be bit higher.

Sorry missed it in description as 'my Hashimoto's ; but can't see anything re thyroid 'meds' taken.

You're under-medicated. Both your FT4 and your FT3 are too low. Most people need their FT3 up the top of the range to feel well. But, your vitamins and minerals are fine. :)
