What is the cause of this pain

[Sleepyachy]

Hi My thyroid has come.back in the right range .

So the achy pains , tiredness most be from something else.

If my Vitamin D level is 41.5 what supplement amount should I get?

I've just for 12.5

So I took 2 instead of one of them today .

Going to phone doctor nxt wk get some advice as I assumed is was my levothyroxine needing uppering .but now I know not the case.

I even wondered if it was fibromyalgia too as that's very similar symptoms.

My thyroid has come.back in the right range .

Please post the results, with their reference ranges (ranges vary from lab to lab), so that we can accurately interpret your results and comment. Just being "in range" doesn't mean that you are optimally medicated.

If you don't have your results, ask the receptionist at your surgery for a print out, the ranges will be on there. Don't accept verbal or hand written results, mistakes can be made, make sure you get a print out or, if you have online access to your results then get the results/ranges from there.

You told us in your last post that your TSH was 4.68 in September, there's no way that a month later your TSH is going to be low enough for you to be optimally medicated. You also need FT4 and FT3, not just TSH.

If my Vitamin D level is 41.5 what supplement amount should I get?

I gave you full information on what dose you should be taking, the important cofactors needed when taking D3, and gave you suggestions of brands of supplements in reply to your post the other day here:

GP should prescribe 1600iu vitamin D everyday for 6 months

NHS Guidelines on dose vitamin D required

ouh.nhs.uk/osteoporosis/use...

GP will often only prescribe to bring levels to 50nmol.

Some areas will prescribe to bring levels to 75nmol

leedsformulary.nhs.uk/docs/...

GP should advise on self supplementing if over 50nmol, but under 75nmol (but they rarely do)

mm.wirral.nhs.uk/document_u...

But with Hashimoto’s, improving to around 80nmol or 100nmol by self supplementing may be better

Once you Improve level, very likely you will need on going maintenance dose to keep it there.

Test twice yearly via vitamindtest.org.uk

Vitamin D mouth spray by Better You is very effective as it avoids poor gut function. There’s a version made that also contains vitamin K2 Mk7

It’s trial and error what dose we need, with hashimoto’s we frequently need higher dose than average

Calculator for working out dose you may need to bring level to 40ng/ml = 100nmol

Government recommends everyone supplement October to April

With your Vit D, are you also taking it's important cofactors - magnesium and Vit K2-MK7?

Magnesium best taken in the afternoon or evening, but must be four hours away from levothyroxine
