Hi Thank you, is it best to start a new chat window to post my results?
Yes please write a new post with your most recent thyroid and vitamin results
ALWAYS test early morning for highest TSH and essential to maintain GOOD vitamin D, folate, B12 and ferritin
Test vitamin levels at least annually
Please add results and say what vitamin supplements you are taking on your new post
Plus wether your hypothyroidism is autoimmune
Hi Kipi, welcome to the forum. 
It's not that the levo isn't 'working' - not a good idea to say something like that to a doctor - it's more that you're not taking enough of it.
50 mcg is just a starter dose, and should have been increased to 75 mcg six weeks after starting it. Your endo has been negligent, I'm afraid. I can't recommend a good one for you, but hope you find one soon.
When someone asks for information about a specific doctor, or practice, or for suggestions of a good practitioner, that post will be closed to replies to ensure that our guidelines are not broken. The poster has not done anything wrong by asking!
It is fine for them to mention the name(s) a doctor, group of doctors, in their question - in neutral language.
For this reason, it is best to ask for information in a new and separate post so that turning off replying doesn’t terminate other discussions.
If you wish to help the person, send them a Private Message (also called Chat) with your information. (The poster might already have asked for Private Messages.)
This also applies if you want to name doctors or practices even when not specifically asked.
And it applies across all health professionals - including alternative practitioners, and all other forms of therapist.
Simply put, do NOT name doctors or other practitioners on the forum.
Guideline 30 applies:
30. Do not post information about specific endocrinologists or doctors on the main board without their permission as this may result in unwanted attention from certain areas of the medical profession. If you wish to discuss a particular endocrinologist or doctor, you may mention his/her name and location, providing that you ask for comments by private message only.
