Any thoughts on the below please? I am considered normal but hoping to see an Endo specialist privately. I do have some more blood test results re: blood count but thought these might be the key ones. Can add if needed
Creatinine 83 (range 53 - 97)
Calcium 2.41 mmol (no normal range)
CKD 75ml/min/1.73m2
Sodium 136mmol (range 133 - 146)
Potassium 4.3ml (range 3.5 - 5.3)
Vitamin D. 87 (no normal range given)
Haemoglobin 130g/l (range 120 - 150)
Ferritin 46 ug/L (normal range 11 - 307)
HbAc1 level - 30 (normal up to 41)
Serum b12 242ng/l (range up to 160)
Folate 6.2 (3.8 - 25)
Plasma ALT 29 (range 7 - 35)
TPO antibodies 1 (normal range 0-30)
TG antibodies (N/K)
TSH 1.19 mu/L (normal 0.34 - 5.6)
FT4 9.2 (normal range 7.7 - 15.1)
FT3 4.7 (range 4.3 - 6.8)
Coristol 365nmol/L
Any support would be great.

Sorry for the late reply. No meat eater and I eat well. I’m not overweight (really). I eat cooked beef and pork (homemade not processed) for snacks. I also eat raspberries, a banana and plenty of pumpkin seeds every day. Does that help?
No….it means if B12 under 160 it’s classed deficient
But many people need B12 at least over 300-400
Your B12 is within…..but low
Many people would have symptoms of low B12 at these sorts of levels
So folate, B12 and ferritin are all on low side …..
When hypothyroid (which your lower Ft4 and Ft3 suggests you might be) …..we frequently develop low stomach acid, this leads to poor nutrient absorption and low vitamin levels
Low vitamin levels tend to lower TSH and reduce conversion of Ft4 to Ft3
Request testing for Pernicious Anaemia before starting on any B12 and vitamin B complex
