I'm finding it really hard to read and absobe what i read,let alone understand any of it, even people talking to me at the moment words are flying over my head like concord really missing the target.

Nope, had to find out for myself again. Don't really want to look too hard, it's bad enough having the thyroid thing going on.

No I wasn't told.

Once, some years ago, after a blood test the GP told me that they had found antibodies to indicate that some time in the future I could get pernicious anaemia. I am glad he told me this because years later, when I was having the thyroid problems and went to have a private blood test done, I took the opportunity of having the B12 tested, as I had never been tested for it after being told those years ago.
It turned out that my B12 was extremely low.
When you consider I had been going to the GP with various symptoms, tiredness being the most prominent, and he thought it wasn't thyroid because my TSH was within normal range, you would have thought that he would have had my B12 tested again but he did not.
When I went back to the surgery with the results I was told, reluctantly, that they would increase the thyroxine as T4 at bottom number, that they do not take any notice of T3 (even though that was way below range) and that they would do another B12 test (which proved positive). Needless to say I was a little better on the extra thyroxine for a couple of months then went back to square one again, as I was not converting.

I didn't know we got anything since reading this title.
What am I to expect?
