I am due for an annual thyroid test as my medication needs reviewing. I take vitamin D, omega 3 (fish oil), magnesium glycinate and vitamin B complex supplements. I know that I should stop taking the vitamin B tablets as they contain biotin but what about the other supplements? Should I stop taking them all? Please advise me on this issue.

The only ones that need to be left off for 7 days is Biotin (as in a B Complex) and iron if having ferritin/iron tested. Other than that, just don't take the others until after the blood draw.
Thank you so much for this information. I am especially relieved I don't have to stop the magnesium. Thank you for replying.
