TOP 3 deficiencies with Hypothyroidism & Hashimotos

My cardiologist sent me to an endocrinologist. She ordered blood work. Never asked me if i had any symptoms, how i felt. When the results came back she said to increase the prescription dose, no questions, no explanation, no instructions on how to take the med, no questions on supplements, no vitamin D lab work. Nothing. This is why i lost faith in U S medical professionals a long time ago.

It is not really utilised medically and many think of vitamin d as a vitamin. It is actually a hormone. I think the 80s scared people about the sun and it is so important. Especially for breast cancer. It helps to regulate.

Vitamin D Vitamin B12 Iron

I do not believe low ferritin causes hypo. It's hypo that causes low ferritin. I am speaking from experience. When my thyroid is tanked, no matter how often I eat beef liver (every day even) my ferritin will not budge up, when my thyroid is out of hypo range, my ferritin easily increases with eating beef liver.

Is the low Vit D levels causing the autoimmune conditions, or do the autoimmune conditions cause the Vit D deficiency?

do tanning beds help raise vitamin d levels? i have a lvl of 15…. i need serious advice

[@keanab4444]

Taking vitamin D orally is the safest option because tanning beds can damage your skin cells and may cause skin cancer later on. My dr prescribed me with Vitamin d but I believe you can buy them too

Why has she blue teeth ? 😅

[@JandKG]

I didn't want to sound rude but I was honestly thinking the same thing.. her tongue looks blue I wonder if it's just something to do with her camera?

[@ljc9845]

Perhaps it’s invisible braces? 🤷🏾‍♀️

[@TaraAusmus]

😂 I wondered that too!

B12 deficiency due to vegetarians.
