Latest BT results

[Bright-eyes]

Morning, could anyone give me some advice on latest BT results please.

I take 150 Levothyroxine ( 75 prescribed by gp, the other 75 I have sourced myself).

Still feeling tired all the time, brain fog, & all the other usual symptoms.

I take vit D+k, B complex, magnesium glycinate & folate.

Many Thanks.

When did you last test vitamin D?

Ferritin was on low side 2 months ago

Did you get full iron panel test done yet

Never supplement iron without doing full iron panel test for anaemia first and retest 3-4 times a year if self supplementing.

It’s possible to have low ferritin but high iron

Test early morning, only water to drink between waking and test. Avoid high iron rich dinner night before test

If taking any iron supplements stop 5-7 days before testing

Thankyou. Yes ferritin always seems to be an issue with me. I will order a full iron panel test and follow instructions.

Thankyou SlowDragon.

Are you GF or DF ?

What was last vitamin D test result

How much vitamin D are you taking

[Bright-eyes]

I have been a bit stop/start with my Vit D but started to take more regularly as drops with Vit k added. Also take a magnesium supplement with added vit D. So hopefully this should help.

I have now gone GF. Dairy free I’m trying to get my head around as so much milk content in products these days.
