As well as thyroid results you need to check out B12,D3 ,ferritin and folate.

Lack of B12 may be causing balance problems.

So, if they say you're anaemic, what are they doing about it?

Could it be B12 deficiency? Marz is good on this.

Just checking see you on any meds for high blood pressure? Lisinopril caused nightmare symptoms for my husband including erectile dysfunction and hypothyroidism to name just 2.

Just after our experience it's best to check its not a known, even if rare, side effect of any of the meds you're taking. Symptoms weren't instant with hb and must have been over a year before ed started. He found out from googling that is was actually not so rare a side effect after GP was useless just saying he was depressed grrrrrrrrr
