Lab results and what to supplement

[eem505]

I just got my lab results and I am not sure what I should start supplementing. I did my research and I see most of my results are too low but I need some second opinion on this before I'll start ordering supplements.

I started on NDT a few months ago but I started feeling worse when rising over 1,5 grain so I checked cortisol (I'm low-low-low-high) and now nutrient tests. I was off NDT for 1 week and now I'm back on 1,5 grain.

Iron - I got prescribed 80mg of iron with 0,35mg of folate by my doc and have been taking it for about 5 months then I stopped for a month before doing tests, I got basically no improvement.

I see my D3 is seriously low and B12 is also not the best. Should I start supplementing both? What doses?

I'm already taking 2g of vitamin C and 100mg of magnesium.

The reason you are struggling to raise NDT is because the rest of your resultsxare Fire and youbneed them to be optimal to improve Thyroid function. But you can't start just throwing a handful of pills into you but add one fortnightly. Thatcway if one disagrees with youbyou can tell which is the culprit. There are many different brands and I've no idea if they vary around the country but if you use the search facility you should get plenty of suggestions and probably doses as well but best to start with small amounts in case they don't agree with you. Don't by multi vitaminsxas they won't give you enough to make a difference and many have iron in them which basically means you are waisting your money as iron interacts with the others. Look at the Thyroid uk site who run this forum as thatcwill have info on best time to take them as well as other useful info.
