Hi ,I diagnosed in May 2024, with u/ a thyroid , plus low B12 and low D3. Have been given thyroxin, and B13 injections and take D3 supplements. I'm also menapausal .

Still feeling extremely tired/ grim and disappointed with my GP/ surgery .

They initially checked TSH ( 5.9)and T 4 ( , TSH had improved after 2/12 but not offers of repeat testing any others blood markers.

I have tried to included all my test results, but I'm struggling to do this - I'd appreciate your help.

Many thanks Claire

Please do start a new post with your blood reults for thyroid & vitamins. You can type thm out or post 1 image per reply to an original post. You may need to write a few words to make it upload.

Theres probably lots we can help you with here before resorting to an Endo which can often be a disappointment.

You are advised to get full thyroid profile bloods done to include TSH, FT4 & FT3 + vitamins ferritin, folate, B12 & D3 and antibodies before your appointment to avoid wasting your first visit.
