i have appointment on 30th with good dr so will beg and cry if needed for either liquid thyroxine or T3 as did better on both of them

Hundreds of tests.....but only one that's relevant is TSH!

Still no FT3, FT4, vitamin D, folate, ferritin or B12

Clearly your under treated

Low vitamins likely

Do you have Hashimoto's? If so, low vitamin levels are even more likely

[mandy72 in reply to SlowDragon]

yep hashis

nothing ever gets tested i did request b12 and ferritin but obviously i was listened too

[SlowDragon Administrator in reply to mandy72]

So are you on strictly gluten free diet?

Helps many on here

[mandy72 in reply to SlowDragon]

no i have tried in the past but really struggled

im just one of them that cant get anywhere fast on thyroxine tablets

my levels go up and down

[SlowDragon Administrator in reply to mandy72]

But being strictly gluten free can reduce these swings in levels

Dose of Levothyroxine obviously needs to be higher

Vitamins optimal too
