You're a poor converter, and it's the lowish FT3 that is causing symptoms. Have you had your nutrients tested: vit D, vit B12, folate, ferritin?
Thank you for your reply.B12 >2000
Folate. 5.9. (3 - 12
Ferritin 58 (10-120
Blood tests for above 6 /1/2022
Vit D. 67. 1. (50 - 150 Date Aug 2020
Have a Dr script Vit D 800 iu per day.
So I need to take some t3
Yes, you do. Unless optimising your nutrients improves conversion. Your folate is too low, should be at least mid-range. Are you supplementing B12? Because it's very high. If you are, then you ought to also be taking a B complex with methylefolate, which would bring your folate level up.
Vit D is too low, as you know, but 800 iu is unlikely to change that. It's not even a maintenance dose. I would buy my own, if I were you. And, with it, you should take magnesium and vit K2-MK7, the cofactors of vit D, without which it will not give the desired effects.
Your ferritin is also too low. Have you had your iron tested?
Ref. to vit d I should get another b/test done, getting bloods tests via gp can be difficult at times, possible look at private 1's ref. Iron. My B12 as been high since July 2018 when I brought this up with a gp I was ignored as it showed high on B/Horizon tests as did the tsh. It was only when the lab's brought it up by requesting a gp's appointment in Sept 2021 & even then the the gp told me it was fine /ok, now the lab's write abnormal - no action 🤔 magnesium oral give me headaches, I do take k2 Mk7 with vitd. So with high b12 it's still OK to take folate.
Have you had thyroid antibodies tested
Do you have autoimmune thyroid disease also called Hashimoto’s
When were vitamin D, folate, ferritin and B12 last tested
What vitamin supplements are you currently taking
Was test done early morning, ideally before 9am and last dose levothyroxine 24 hours before test
Email Thyroid U.K. for list of recommended thyroid specialist endocrinologist and doctors who will prescribe T3

Hi Thyriod peroxidase abs <9.0. <34
Thyrodlobulin abs <10. <115

Theses are NHS. results Date. 6/1/2022

Folate 5.9. (3 - 12
Ferritin 58. (10 - 12
Vit D 67.1. (50-150. - Date Aug 2020
My blood test was done 8.55am no levo taken.
Other vit's are magnesium spray & k2 Mk7, sometimes vit C.
Ref. about the email Thank you & for reading my post.
Improving folate to at least 50% through range
Look at adding a daily vitamin B complex. One with folate in not folic acid
Vitamin D at least around 80nmol and around 100nmol maybe better
Likely to need 2000iu vitamin D per day …..retest after 3-4 months.
Look at increasing iron rich foods in diet to improve ferritin to at least around 70
