nancypapa, In a previous post you wrote that you had an endocrinologist and neurologist following your case.

What have they had to say about your symptoms?

[nancypapa in reply to RedApple]

She said my symptoms are not due to my hashimoto condition so I went to a neurologist. He asked for a sed rate lab test and a brain mri. I know the sed rate is very high so there is inflammation in my body and the mri idk results until I see him for follow up at the end of February. On my researches reading I found that hashimoto can attack the brain but I don’t know anything until I see him

When were vitamin D, folate, ferritin and B12 last tested

Please add most recent results and ranges

What vitamin supplements are you currently taking

As you have Hashimoto’s are you on absolutely strictly gluten free diet

If not get coeliac blood test done before considering trial on strictly gluten free diet 3-6 months

Please add most recent thyroid results and ranges

ALWAYS test as early as possible in morning before eating or drinking anything other than water and last dose levothyroxine 24 hours before test

Essential to test TSH, Ft4 and Ft3
