GP says it’s low B12 Level but not PA
My B12 serum level was 248 which my GP says is at the low end of normal. She ordered one B12 injection a month for 3 months (3 injections total). I have pins and needles pain in my ribs and pelvis and also loose stool but am not fatigued or nausea. I was on Omeprazole for 23 days last month. I asked

Gastritis improvement with injections
I am curious if those with gastritis have found it improved after injections. I had an endoscopy last year, after monthly injections were started, which showed moderate gastritis. This year, the endoscopy showed marked improvement, along with better bowel movements and less intestinal cramping. The

Oxford researchers identify levels of antibody protection required to prevent symptomatic COVID-19.
Researchers from the University of Oxford have today released their findings about the so-called ‘correlates of protection’ against symptomatic COVID-19; potentially a tool to speed up safe development of new vaccines which may assist regulators in assessing the likely potency of any new COVID-19 vaccine

Question about IV iron for anyone who has gotten an infusion.
Hey guys. Just asking this out of curiosity. But has anyone actually had RLS go away or improve after an IV iron infusion? I got one back in October and didn’t notice a perceivable difference. Pretty sure my levels are on the lower end now, so I’m getting an iron panel tomorrow but I just wanted to see

Jakavi
I started Jakavi treatment some months ago as I was progressing from PV to myelofibrosis. I had immediate relief from itching but it seems to have returned. Enlsrged spleen, haematocrit down, platelets low and white cells not well controlled. What now?

Folic Acid and B12 injections
I have always had low Iron and Folate but until recently my GP has done nothing to correct the levels. It was a diagnosis of Oral Lichen Planus to have my Haematinics checked, I have also been diagnosed with Bile Acid Malapsorption. I was put on B12 injections for life but my folate has now gone down

Too much B12
I think I’ve overdone it on the B12....!!! 😩 I had annual leave last week so I decided to SI daily hydroxocobalamin alongside taking a sublingual Cyano, 400mcg folic acid, magnesium, calcium, B Complex and an electrolyte drink (9 days in a row) and then after 2 days break I SI Cyano for the first time

Random Strange question about Black Poop/Iron Pills :-)
Hey guys Sorry for the topic so early at breakfast time hehe but... I managed to get the ferrous fumarate yesterday (capsules 305mg) and took one before I went to bed at 12pm. Just did my normal morning poop after taking thyroid meds which always kick starts this and it was pretty much all black. Nothing

Cyanocobalamin v Hydroxocobalamin
Hi all I've just managed to find the information I had read online a while back regarding the various forms of Vitamin B12 and which one to use. Although CliveAlive has used the Cyanocobalamin version for years - is now in his 80s - which speaks for itself, Dr Ben Lynch has other ideas. I don't know

Asking for help to interpret blood results
Hi there! Today I received some laboratory results and I would like to have further advice and help to understand the results. My GP gave me a referral to a hematologist and I would like to know what I should ask for. I still don't have the guidance of a good health professional and I still feel lost

Neutrophils have bottomed out.
I am supposed to have finished my 4th round of FCR last week but the start of it was delayed for a week because my ANC was .5 (2-7.5 is normal). Blood was checked again last week and it actually dropped to .4. Here we are now two weeks after I was supposed to start round 4 and my neutrophils now read

Reoccurring symptoms - is this “normal” ?
I have been receiving injections for a year now. Progress has been made but I still get some very bad days. I had loading doses and then monthly injections which was not nearly enough. Right now I inject about once a week. Some days I feel good and then I hit stretches of days when I feel awful. I

Normocytic Anemia,.
I have had 12 weekly B12 injections for a few years now. In February I discovered I have Normocytic anemia, and my gp told me that it occurs due to blood loss and my red cell count is low. I had a FIT test wwhich came back negative, which is great. But I am having a colonoscopy and gastrostomy

Newly diagnosed and looking for a very helpful post I would like to re-visit
I was checking through posts and answers to them a couple of weeks ago and found someone who had replied to another newbie on the site and so much of what this person said, made sense to me. I would like to revisit this post and perhaps take advantage of the offer of a chat given by the woman who wrote

Fred the iron molecules tale : The end
This will only make sense if you’ve read my previous post https://healthunlocked.com/rlsuk/posts/146515820/fred-the-iron-molecule-and-rls-a-story. There was a question in this post and I promised the writer of the best answer a chocolate muffin. It’s my opinion that the best information was provided
