Hyper and hypo at same time? Why does long term hypo cause vit/min level drop?

[Guest guest]

I have worked out with many tests etc, that I have a problem with cellular

uptake of thyroid as I am low in Ferritin (29, range 20 - 200), have severe

adrenal fatigue (as confirmed by genova 24hr saliva test - stage 4 exhaustion

currently on NAE x2 at 8am and then I take a corex at 11am) and low in B12 and

D3, (both of which I take high dose supplements for).

My gp has at last admitted I need ferritin and has prescribed 2 months worth of

ferritin fumate at a massive dose 3 times per day, (which end beginning of Feb),

and will only retest after Easter !?! She will not admit I am hypothyroid as all

thyroid tests are " normal " - and has said in fact if anything my t3 is too high

and I am hyper. She doesnt understand at all (usual NHS story), that I have

nearly every hypo symptom, but because I have too much t3 in the blood because

of poor cellular uptake I also have a few hyper symptoms (palpatations from time

to time especially in the evening).

Please can someone in the know assure me that I am not talking nonsense by

thinking I am extremely hypo (diagnosed with fibromyalgia as well) but because I

am low in ferritin, adrenals, dhea, d3, the t3 cant get into the cells and is

pooling in the blood, causing a few hypo symptoms?

I do not take any thyroid yet, (waiting until I get my vit/min/adrenal levels

up).

Also, I believe I have been hypo since childhood as I have always had symptoms -

does long term hypothyroidism cause all your vit/min/adrenal levels to drop and

why?

Sorry for the long post. I am trying to get a better understanding of my

situation. Merry Christmas

Yes as it usually lowers stomach acid and cause's poor absorption.

I suspect that like my husband and my daughter you have Hashimotos this causes

fluctuations in symptoms for years and its many years after massive symptoms

develop that the blood tests shift to suit stupid doctors parameters

My husband before he finally got proper diagnosis went to Bio Lab in London and

they found that despite an incredibly healthy diet even to the pioint he ate 6

oranges in a day along with wholemeal bread etc he had severe Scurvy and Beri

Beri

Our daughter has pretty much the same

Both have Hashimotos and both of them were diagnosed with levels in the " normal

range " but they also have CENTRAL HYPOTHYROID as i am sure does our

grandaughter ..........the problem is idiot GPs and Consultants refuse to face

the issue that symptoms occur light years before the tests shift and that so

called rare diseases run in families and TSH is not God

Fibromyalgia =Hypothyroid just as Carpal Tunnel = thyroid

Coeliac = High risk of thyroid
