Help with labs please. Thx

Thoughts please on labs. I am currently taking 120mg armour in the morning and 45 mg in afternoon . Vit d with k, vit c , vit b’s . Mag, zinc . Ldn 3mg at night.

Eat pretty healthy but not gluten free or dairy free yet but rarely eat them to begin with . Stared gluten free this past Sunday .

My antibodies have never been this high .

Last two weeks lots of rib pains , back , neck , pins and needles . Couple palpitations , gas .

When I got the blood drawn last Friday I was still somewhat sick , had a good head cold all week .

Should I supplement iron ? Increase armour ?

Thank you

My thyroglobulin antibodies are 4000 and my peroxide antibodies are 600 and have been that high for a few years now. This means your thyroid is under attack from your own body just like mine. I have tried to reduce them by taking selenium but it hasn't worked for me, have you tried taking that? You could be feeling unwell because of your cold because I have been suffering from a chest infection for nearly a month now and my GP thinks this might be impacting on my thyroid function and making me unwell. Hopefully some other members will be along who know a lot more about blood results to comment about them.

Thankyou for the reply. I don’t supplement with selenium but my levels are top of the range for some reason
