I’m just finding things so difficult at the moment, feeling more exhausted and in pain more often which drives my anxiety way up.

I think I should get my levels tested again, I’m just feeling exhausted even going up the stairs.

your thyroid and vitamin results showed you were in need of 25mcg increase in levothyroxine

And vitamin D, B12 and ferritin needed improving

Did you get 25mcg increase in levothyroxine

How much levothyroxine are you currently taking

Approx how much do you weigh in kilo

Guidelines on dose levothyroxine by weight is approx 1.6mcg levothyroxine per kilo of your weight per day

Do you always get same brand levothyroxine at each prescription

What vitamin supplements are you currently taking

Suggest you get thyroid and vitamin levels retested

Test early morning and last dose levothyroxine 24 hours before test
