Friends blood results

Hi , my friend has been diagnosed with  thyroid problems , her first blood tests showed she had anti bodies too.

She started on 25mg meds for first 3 weeks then on 50mg for the last moth . she has now taken a new blood test and this is her results :

FT3  3.22 Pmol/L      range 3.10 - 6.80
FT4 1.12  Pmol/L                0.9    - 1.7

VIT B12 679.4 pg/mL    range 250 - 900

VIT D 22.8 ng/mL          expected >30
                                       moderate deficiency between 10 -30
                                       deficiency <10

I can see that her FT3 is low and vit D . Her doctor told her , her results are fine :(

I would personally think she needs to increase her meds now , she has all the normal thyroid symptoms too.

Any advice would be appreciated .

Honestly doctors! Yes your friend needs to increase vitamin D. Free T3 is quite low in the range. If she has hypo symptoms she needs her medication adjusted. Possibly adding in T3 if needed.
