Low saturation with PV and Jakavi 20
I have had PV since two years. Rux started december '23. Good results with HB and HCT. HB is pretty low now 7.7 for a while. My weight has increased 10% wit the same diet. My saturation is, in rest 92, with effort I can raise it to 93/94. Long test last week revealed a very good lung condition (5,7

What can I do to stop getting colds and flus all the time?
Hi. I've been on IM B12 for about a year now and all symptoms have improved and I'm generally doing really well. I suspect B1 deficiency (improvement with oral supplementation) was present and I corrected D deficiency. I have hashimotos thyroiditis and am stable on medication. I still get colds and flus

What to do when denosumab course ends?
I have been on denosumab injections since July 2019, so the injection that I am to have next month will probably be my last. During this time I have not had a Dexa scan at all. I am under "shared care" between my GP and the hospital, which is in practice a complete joke, as I have to dairy it, order

Cholesterol
Hello all, Following a recent blood test, I've received a message from my GP saying my cholesterol is a bit high and advising lifestyle changes and offering statins. I'm currently researching statins trying to make an informed decision. I read that they are advised for CVD. I have a leaking Mitral valve

Advice - where to get Decapeptyl injection
Iâm being treated abroad but my clinic has sister clinic here which I use for scans and
blood
tests
. I can only get an appointment for 8.45 on the day I need injection and at that time the clinic is pretty much a four hour round trip.

New results confused

Now, this is what I donât get, two weeks ago I had my kidney bloods done and the results were worrying apparently? The blood test was repeated yesterday

Low ferritin
Opinions please on low ferritin. Had a blood test last week to rule out CA and my ferritin level is 11. Range is 10 - 150. I have several symptoms of iron deficiency and just wondering if it is actually too low. GP states that is still in range. Any thoughts please?
