Are my levels normal?

I'm not asking for medical advice, just advice interpreting my results. As I know doctors ranges can be wrong.

TSH - 2.13mU/L

Free T4 - 15.04pmol/L

Free T3 - 3.6pmol/L

I had a slight iodine deficiency a few years ago and took iodine until my TSH got to 1ish, but it is slowly climbing back up over the years. Is this level still ok?

Doctor said this is normal?

Is this ok? My ferritin is 19. Do I need to supplement? Should I raise my ferritin before trying to supplement?

Can low ferritin cause vertigo episodes abs off-balance dizziness that is constant even when at rest/lying down?

I am being investigated by ENT and everything but wanted to know if anyone had any similar symptoms and if fixing the ferritin fixed the dizziness?

Thanks

I am having terrible anxiety and have been for over a year now. I have an pretty good job, it pays really well, the work is easy (but repetitive and boring), the hours are long but I get every 3rd week off.

I also have long term dizziness that my doctor is investigating. But I have recently developed shortness of breath that I'm attributing to anxiety. I also have bad panic attacks, insomnia and depression.

I find myself dreading work but I can't determine if it's the near constant boredom that's feeding into my symptoms/anxiety or the boredom forcing me to focus on my symptoms to the point I am uncomfortable.

I don't know whether I should hold on and see if my anxiety improves when I get treatment for my physical symptoms or if I should try and change my job because I'm stressed because I'm bored.

How do I tell the difference?
