Hospice
Sharing that my daughter and I are meeting with hospice for in home hospice care this afternoon. I was going to wait for one more CT scan and oncologist visit, but this past weekend I spent the whole weekend in bed and had so much weakness and breathing problems that I can't put it off any longer.

Does anyone know anything about low SigA levels and links with b12 deficiency please?
Hi…I’ve recently read an article, but can’t find it at mo! that low SigA levels along with high gastrin levels can indicate b12 deficiency. It caught my attention as on 2 previous tests, a stool and a saliva test, the SigA was included and very low both times which says can give rise to infections,allergies

Back to life thanks to this forum! GP Next steps though - further levo increase?
You've been so helpful. Your collective knowledge has led to a diagnosis of (ords) hashimotos, my levo being upped to 75mg and I'm pain free for the first time in 5 YEARS! Thank you. I feel alive again. I armed myself with printed NICE guidelines and facts/ research and GP didn't resist this time and

lapararoscopy
I have a complex cyst probably 7.2-7.4cm and have been told that I will need eventual laparascopy. I am back 23rd of July again for another tvultrasound to check how it is. The gynae/surgeon has done watchful waiting with me since my diagnosis as he knows I am a carer for my mum and I have no one else

Reversing Intestinal Metaplasia.
.Hi, I have been reading the results of research from a link on another website stating that supplementation of 30mg folic acid daily can reverse precancerous conditions such as Metaplasia. Has anyone else read similar results from research. Thanks

Vertigo 3 months after starting the B12 treatment
Hi, I got vertigo today. It has been 3 months after I started treatment for B12 and D deficiency. I understand that people have mentioned about reversing symptoms but wanted to check if someone else has faced vertigo and completely recovered from it. Which medicine did you take for vertigo apart?

Help?
hello all, I’m new here - both to B12D (?PA). 36yo female Do you find that doctors understand the reversing out symptoms? My GP is trying her hardest to find something rare that makes sense of all the symptoms but I think it’s just B12 and chronic low iron. She has me on 1x monthly hydrox injection

Eczema
I am wondering how many people with asthma also see a dermatologist for skin problems. I have bad episodes with eczema inside my ears, and on my legs and arms. Now that summer is coming, I would really love for this to clear up. I notice when my asthma is acting up, I get more breakouts. There must be

Hope this is a blip...
Hi all, I'm noticing a return of the nerve pings and tingles that first took me to the gp 5 months ago, especially the weird quivering lips... all this disappeared pretty soon after 6 loading doses, and I SI every 3 days since then. Taking iron, folic acid, VitD as recommended and eating a daily banana

List of medications to avoid?
Hi all, hope we're all getting our natural Vitamin D on this sunny Sunday☀️? I understand there are some medications that can badly affect us B12 deficients - certain antibiotics for instance. Is there a definitive list available? I've searched this forum but can't find anything. I'd really like to

steroid reduction problems
I reduced to 11.5 mg from 12.5 mg 10 days ago. I don’t feel well in a non specific way eg as when having a virus. After showering and dressing I need to sit down for a couple of hours to recover. To be fair this has been the case for weeks. I don’t do any housework ( husband does it) can’t attend yoga

Sunshiney days.
Should vit D supplements be adjusted when we are out and about in sunshine? Are amino acids worth taking as supplements? All stuff I come across in random readings. Thanks.

T3 (Cytomel): How would you fit it in these results? Or would you? And all the mistakes I have made on this journey
Latest results (overjoyed to be finally here) - TSH .74 (.32 to 4) T4 14 (9 to 19) T3 4.2 (2.6 to 5.8) I am on 262.5 mcg levothyroxine (Note: In 50s so 50×5 & 1/4 of a 50) I feel what I would deem pleasantly okay. Always have felt the best on NDT, but I needed so much I could no longer afford it. And
