Low folate

[Tanyaking]

I’ve been sadly admitted to hospital and when they brought my tablets they said I need folic acid because it came up low,nobody’s had a conversation with me since Wednesday morning,just my brain scan is ok and my TSh is too low so drop it..and what is T3 😩 I’m tired of explaining it over and over ...

I agree with the bit about keeping unprescribed drugs in your toiletry bag or handbag.

My INS flares up when I’m stressed,they won’t give Imodium,want samples/ isolation etc.

I really wouldn't be bothered telling 'supposed to be' trained medical personnel the 'ins and outs of hypothyroidism'.

I'd suggest they go for some further training.

Tell them you feel fine with a low TSH and that people who are hypothyroid and take replacement hormones will have a 'low' TSH preferably 1. And No you have not become hyperthyroidism due to the low TSH.
