Blood test results please help

Hi there. I’ve been feeling unwell now for over a year-the odd Migraine, tingling, pins and needles, fatigue, Brain fog, fibromyalgia type symptoms, palpitations, internal shaking, stomach issues. I’ve been to rheumatologist twice and just back from third visit to neuro. He says this is all caused by migraine and prescribed Amitriptyline but I rarely get headaches. I feel like such a hypochondriac and i know that’s what neuro thinks. I’ve had mri which is clear. Am getting full thyroid testing done tomorrow but so far I have these results (no ranges but I’m in Ireland if that makes any difference) hopefully someone can shed some light!

Tsh 1.61

Ft4 18.06

Folate 4.9

UIBC 18.0

MCHC 32.6

Ferritin 52.0

Iron 30

Vitamin b12 1186

Many thanks

We always need the ranges on all tests (figures in brackets after each result)

For full Thyroid evaluation you need TSH, FT4 and FT3 plus both TPO and TG thyroid antibodies tested.

Also important to test vitamin D, folate, ferritin and B12

Low vitamin levels are common. Can cause symptoms in their own right

Recommended on here that all thyroid blood tests should ideally be done as early in morning and fasting.
