Thank you for your reply to my first post. Just a couple more questions.

Thank you so much for your reply. This group is amazing! The only supplement I am taking at the moment is vitamin d, 1000iu. I’m wondering whether I should take more having seen my test result. I did take a b complex for a while but stopped it about three weeks before doing the blood test and haven’t restarted. Also, I have read here the importance of K2 and magnesium with vitamin d. Is there a particular strength of dose for these? Are there any you would recommend as I obviously need to get some. Yes, I did the test first thing in the morning following all the brilliant guidance on here.

My ths has risen quite a lot in the last year as was always in the range of 1 - 1.6 ( and that was in a range which went higher), so will keep an eye on this.

So, as you think that a gp wouldn’t do anything with these results, is there anything I can do to help myself to feel better? Is there anything dietary which might help?Or do I just have to wait for things to get worse?🙁 I will definitely test again in six months as you suggest.

Finally, does anyone else suffer with intense itching? My head and back have been really itchy for a couple of months. I’m wondering whether this is thyroid related, something to do with having had shingles a year ago (it’s not in the same place as that was), or something different entirely! Thank you so much for any advice.

Thank you.
