Hi everyoneI have posted on here previously, history of subclinical hypothyroidism and GP reluctant to put me on medication for it.
What are your suggestions about how to approach? I'm having some Hairloss but unsure if this is due to stress. My life is extremely stressful and I also have mental health problems which cause me intense distress.
Tsh- 6.7(0.2-4)
This is a bit alarming, as it has gone up since last test (was 5.4 in April)
T4-13.6 (11-22.6)
Antibodies- 28 ku/ml (0-60)
Do you think I should demand medication for this, I'm worried it will make everything worse and feel like my GP is clueless.
Thank you x x

I am taking the vitabiotics ultra iron with b12, folic acid and vit c. I am trying to get out in the sunshine and taking vit d. I must admit I am not the most consistent with taking the vitamins.
Would you recommend starting on 25mg of levo?
I'm really tired of it all, doc also recommend sertraline or duloxetine for my anxiety. (always been anxious even before hypothyroid)
