Doctors appointment after Blue Horizon Blood test

Hi. Following on from my last post when I put my blue Horizon bloods results on here I today saw a gp and showed him my results. He basically said they’re all normal and when pressed as to why I was feeling so crap he said that it’s “the come down period” or my body adjusting to my dose being reduced in September. The only positive to come out of it is that he’s told me to come back for another blood test in three months instead of the nine months that the last gp suggested. He did however take the printed copies of my private results and some other info that I’ve managed to get from here and said he’s meeting a friend who’s something to do with endocrinology to get her opinions on it. He said that they as doctors don’t know everything and don’t know all the answers to everything. I feel completely deflated. He trashed the whole “gluten free thing” and pretty much all the other advise I’ve received on here. Where do I go from here. Comments and opinions appreciated. I’ve re posted my BH bloods again as a reminder.

Your GP is wrong. On Levothyroxine TSH should be under 1.5 when on just

New NHS England Liothyronine guidelines November 2018 clearly state on pages 8 & 12 that TSH should be under 1.5 when on just Levothyroxine
