Any expert eyes make any sense of these results

[Spritze]

Hi

I am writing to my GP today to ask for B12 injections to increase my levels to top 25% of range and support my clearly wonky thyroid activity. If anyone has any observations whatsoever regarding my blood results over the last 18 months I would be truly grateful !

I will attach results in next post as I think easier to zoom in that way..

I am undiagnosed as yet....

Here are the results

table

[Jaydee1507 Administrator]

Free T4 (fT4) 14.6 pmol/L (12 - 22) 26.0%

Free T3 (fT3) 3.9 pmol/L (3.1 - 6.8) 21.6%

Your TSH at 1.8 is too high. To feel well most people need it at or below 1.

Further to that, your FT4 has not even reached 50% so you are ready for the next dose increase of Levo which you should insist on to your GP.

The good news is that you seem to be converting well, so that although your FT3 is relatively low at 21.6%, as soon as you do get a Levo increase that should raise proportionately.

You might want to post on the Pernicious Anaemia group here on HealthUnlocked regarding obtaining B12 injections.

If someone is struggling with B12 levels its recommended to take the 1,000mcg B12 sublingual plus a good methyl B complex.

Hi thanks for your thoughts but I am undiagnosed and therefore not on 'Levo' .

My most recent results are all in range so my GP thinks nothing going on here ...

Its really difficult with a TSH under 2 and no antibodies. Even with positive antibodies GP's would be taking no notice at all.

For now there's obviously an issue with B12 absorption so might be better to focus on that + associated vitamin levels.

Exactly what vitamin supplements have you been taking

A separate B12 and vitamin B complex?

Which B12

Are you vegetarian or vegan?

Have you had ultrasound scan of thyroid

Hi over the last 18 months Ive taken all sorts. Just a basic Multi Vitamin and mineral at the start, progressing to high strength B12 and B complex in the middle then nothing for the last two results in November. I am not vegetarian, eat well, had no ultrasound as GP can't see a problem.
