My latest result is only tsh 1.3

i write the history to explain that i am not need to increase my levo

I have low folic acid b12 and vitamin d for 3 years

I am taking b complex and my test result is fine

My vitamin d is still low (16 range 30-100)

I feel fine but somtimes i feel have chills and i feel like a flu ( but without high temp) and its over after a day

i want start taking vitamin c 500 and asking if you know if this vitamin helps for hashimoto? Its dangerous for me? what is the best time to take it ( i take love first in the morning)?

And if someone know the chills and like a flu ?

You need to increase your vitamin D supplement

How much are you currently taking?

Vitamin D result is presumably in ng/ml units

Aiming to improve to at least 35ng/ml and around 40ng/ml may be better (40ng/ml = 100nmol UK units )

Thx for your answer

i know i need to elevated tp 35 min

Can you add the ranges on your Ft4 and Ft3 results

Every lab has different ranges

Eg

Ft4 14 (9-19)

Vitamin C can help support adrenals....may help improve low iron levels..if iron or ferritin are low

Suggest taking vitamin C after breakfast

Vitamin D should be at least four hours away from taking levothyroxine. Taking with food to help absorption

Ft4 range is 8-20

And my irin and ferritin is low

[SlowDragon Administrator in reply to Adam1805]

And Ft3 range?

[Adam1805 in reply to SlowDragon]

3.5-7
