This was some of the info Slowdragon asked for. This is from September 2019. My most current TSH is 3.2. My current vitamin B12 is 1400. This is the most recent test I had for all of the other things. Let me know if this shows anything that could be going on. As I’ve said, I have major bouts with anxiety and depression that I cannot explain. It’s like a switch in my brain is turned on to panic mode and then can switch back to normal mode. Very frustrating! Have had long periods where I haven’t had any problems and then bam it will hit and can last days, weeks, or even months at a time. I assume the high levels of vitamins are from the vitamins I take. I take: vitamin d 5,000 IU, Homocysteine Supreme which I believe is a B12 supplement, orthomega which is fish oil, and Metagenics PhytoMulti 2 a day, and then the antidepressant Fluoxetine 40 mg a day. Then I am currently taking an injection of 200 mg of Testosterone for Low T. Any advice would be appreciated!

Testing information
The anxiety I had came from undermedication. What the body lacked in thyroid hormones it made up for with adrenalin. So if I was pretty much in a quiet routine I was fine. However anything more demanding meant anxiety. I remember sitting in a bistro having a lovely family meal wondering why I had the jitters.
I have never been on any medication for the thyroid so I’m just trying to see if that could be what I need. I’ve been through the ringer with various drs and antidepressants/anti anxiety meds. Talked to psychologists and saw psychiatrists you name it. None of it ever helped or made sense to be because I have a great life with a great family. Haven’t had any major life issues that would cause a person to have the feelings I sometimes get Thank God. I just know something is not right somewhere!
Know that feeling well. Like a ticking time bomb and until it really goes haywire nobody can tell you what is wrong.
I still haven’t found anyone that can tell me what is wrong! All the drs I have had just scratch their head. Like it’s a mystery. I have spent many many days in the last 10 years in total misery.
I cannot read those results because they are too small but your TSH is too high and should be 1 or lower.
Can you increase them by about 50%? (I am talking about the results picture btw)
I was afraid of that! I will see what I can do with the picture. My TSH January of 2019 was 4.9, then in September 2019 it was 2.5, then June 2020 it was 3.2.
Sorry too fussy to read
Can you type up results for
TSH, Ft4 and Ft3, plus TPO and TG antibodies
Vitamin D, folate, ferritin, B12
Can see many vitamin results are high
Presumably you have been supplementing
Do you also have any vitamin results from before supplementing
TSH - 2.56
Thyroxine T4 - 8.2
T3 Uptake - 28
free Thyroxine Index- 2.3
T3 (Free) - 3.3
Reverse T3 Serum- 16.3
T4 Free(Direct) - 1.41
Ferritin- 632
Vitamin D- 158.4
Folate- >20 it says
B12- > 2,000 it says
I don’t see anything for TPO or TH antibodies.
Sorry need the ranges too (fugues in brackets after each result)
Often lab has different ranges ...especially in different countries
Reference Ranges:
TSH (0.45-4.5) mine 2.56
T4 (4.5-12) mine 8.2
T3 Uptake (24-39) mine 28
Free Thyroxine Index (1.2-4.9) mine 2.3
T3 Free (2.0-4.4) mine 3.3
Reverse T3 Serum (9.2-24.1) mine 16.3
T4 Free Direct (.82-1.77) mine 1.41
Ferritin (30-400) Mine 632
Vitamin D (30-100) Mine 158.4
Folate (>3) Mine >20
B12 (232-1235) Mine 2,000
Please also outline what supplements you are/were taking when these tests done
At the time of this particular test this was my regiment:
Supplements:
Vitamin D Klaire Labs- 5,000 IU
Designs for Health Homocysteine Supreme 2 per day
Metagenics Phyto Multi 2 a day
Orthomega Fish Oil 2 per day
Prescription:
Fluoxetine 60 MG
Metagenics
contains
very high B12
High folate
High B6
1000iu vitamin D
And iodine - iodine can badly affect thyroid
And taking this as well
Designs for Health homocysteine
shop.designsforhealth.com/h...
Also contains high B12 and folate and B6
Your taking so much you could be poisoning yourself
Suggest you stop supplements
6000iu vitamin D is far too high a dose as shown by your very high vitamin D
Should I do that by first cutting them back? I wonder why the drs have not told me to stop these things?
So did your doctor advise you to take all these supplements?
It doesn’t appear that you are taking any supplements with iron in
But your ferritin is very high
What does your doctor say about this
mayoclinic.org/tests-proced...
A dr first put me on this about 7 years ago. He had moved to his own practice so he didn’t take my insurance. Well I was fine for about 5 or 6 years then had another bad episode. I then started going to him again last year and paying out of pocket. I spent thousands of dollars on all kinds of tests and he never really was able to tell me anything. He kept me on the supplements knowing the levels were high. Not sure why. Well after a lot of money I decided to go another route with a hormone therapy dr. He first did the testosterone which seems to help and I have also cut my fluoxetine in half. After you suggested that I should quit the vitamins, I have sent him my new dr an email. He is usually very good to get back to me.
I have never supplemented iron.
Iron and ferritin are complex
It’s possible to have high ferritin and low iron
irondisorders.org/Websites/...
Informative link about high ferritin
Looks like vitamin D is too high (30-100)
Presumably you were supplementing ?
Vitamin D is toxic in excess.
Were you supplementing iron?
Ferritin looks high ...
I have been taking the same vitamins for about 7 years now. All of my vitamins were low back then. I do not have the numbers from back then. No one in the last 10 yrs has mentioned I might have thyroid issues. It was just mentioned by a hormone replacement dr I am no going to.
Well taking too much of a vitamin can cause problems
Vitamin D is oil based and you can’t get rid of excess vitamin D.
Assuming vitamin D is ng/ml.
50ng/ml is high and 158ng/ml is ridiculously high
High vitamin D can cause high calcium in blood
Iron is extremely toxic in excess
Too much vitamin B6 can cause issues
Exactly what vitamin supplements are you currently taking
Your TSH seems relatively high, despite being in the “normal” range. Also, (at the risk of adding another supplement to your regimen) are you sure you’re not running low on magnesium and maybe (though less likely based on your T3) zinc?
Not what you're looking for?
