Comparing your last results to these, I think your thyroid is starting to fail. Last time your FT4 was in range (low in range but in range)—now it’s under range. Your TSH is rising. I see from previous posts you’re on Metformin, which is likely the reason your TSH isn’t higher than it is.

With an under range FT4 you may now find a doctor takes the matter more seriously—I’d certainly be thinking you may need thyroid hormone replacement.

How are you feeling?

Your ferritin levels look pretty low too—you may well be anaemic.

hi jazzow, I e been feeling rubbish for ages. I’m worried about this mass on my adrenal gland but I also have fibromyalgia all the symptoms of extreme tiredness and pain, back ache, blurred eyes, The list is endless x I needed to know if i had anything else wrong which could be making me feel this bad. I’m going to print both tests out and the replies to present to my GP and endocrinologist ( if I ever get that follow up appointment) seen the cardiologist recently and he was surprised and happy that doubling up my statin had helped avert whatever crisis he was worried about x

what were the vitamin results?

[Sandybbfan in reply to Jaydee1507]

looks ok apart from Ferritin

Low ferritin but everything else is ok, I already take Vit D supplement

Well your folate is too low. Should be nearer 20 to feel well. It's suggested here to take a B complex. Thorne Basic B is a food one with the active form of folate.

Just for reference - if you get your results page up, look top right, you’ll see an icon that says “ downloadable pdf”. If you click on that it will show all your results on one page. It makes life a lot easier 😊
