Neutropenia and its effects.....
I was diagnosed with lupus by my rheumatologist in 2020. Since 2016 I have had low iron levels on numerous occasions, which was initially treated with oral iron with little effect. I was eventually given an iron infusion in May 2021. This brought my iron levels up for some time, but in April this

Blood test help for chronic fatigue and brain fog
Based on those readings I think
anaemia
, adrenal and thyroid problems could almost certainly be ruled out as a potential cause. One test that I didn’t get done though was homocysteine.

Recent NHS iron results
I posted my medichecks results a few weeks ago with full thyroid panel indicating low ferritin . I made an appointment with gp who was not aware of the NICE guidlines regarding this. I gave her a copy of the information I had from this site and she accepted them However because I am over 60 she was

Betaine HCl (hydrochloric acid) for autoimmune atrophic gastritis low acid pain (have PA as well)
Happy Sunday to you... I was wondering if any of you use or have used Betaine HCl (with pepsin) for low acid stomach pain and discomfort. I have tried all the acid reducers per gastro doc which didn't work well or not at all for me, and my stomach continued to get worse. While researching I learned

Iron infusion
At that time I had slight
anaemia
with HG of 11, low iron, transferrin saturation and ferritin. Two months ago I began to feel dreadful again, with physical and mental exhaustion, headaches, tinnitus and constantly feeling cold, plus a sore mouth.

Increased PA Symptoms and Iron Deficiency
I have no idea if what I'm experiencing is just a flare or could be possible related to my iron deficiency issues, but I figured I'd post on here to see if anyone else has had a similar experience. I was diagnosed with both PA and Iron Deficiency without Anemia at the same time. I have been doing

About Iron
I'm asking a lot of questions - sorry - but I really have to get this problem sorted out, and this is such a great place to ask questions. When I first got RLS really badly, I read up and found out about possible iron deficiency. I thought this was strange as I eat huge amounts of food with lots of

Positive Intrinsic Factor
It's obvious to me now i have pernicious anemia. I went round and round with the conventional tests but the symptoms and the positive IF are enough for me. My symptoms are scary and include psychosis so this has been a nightmare. My question is what exactly [i]causes[/i] the low stomach acid to begin

Help with results and GP recommendations
I have been struggling with Hashimoto since 2016 probably undiagnosed for a long time. My TSH results at the GP have always been around 3-4 and the GP always said your results are in range but I was feeling knackered. I have seen a few a functional medicine doctors over the years while they have helped

Besremi and Hematocrit Control
Closing in on five months on Besremi and my WBC and PLT's are now in the "normal" range, but HCT control continues to be elusive. I did get a 250ml PB on May 21, hoping that along with higher dose of Besremi (145) would knock the HCT down. The result? Exactly the same. 43.6 (My goal is 42 or lower

Tests for iron
Following the advice in the Mayo's clinic protocol, I asked my doctor for a full iron assessment including serum iron, ferritin, total iron-binding capacity, and percentage transferrin saturation which should be measured in the early morning after an overnight fast.

New bloods - confused about iron study outcomes
Good afternoon Fabulous people – hoping for your wisdom again. I had new bloods on 10th June (8 week check on levo dosage). I knew that the NHS bloods wouldn’t test FT3 and FT4 (even though they were specifically requested on the form by the GP). I ordered a medichecks test to test these privately.

Breakthrough in laboratory production of red blood cells towards saving lives of those with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukaemia in the future
While the article surprisingly doesn't mention cancer, just giving the example of sickle cell
anaemia
, transfusion dependent people with CLL should certainly also qualify. Now we need similar research success for platelets and white blood cells!

Besremi and Zyrtec
Hi.........I'm going through the process of getting approved for Besremi. My not specialist hem is worried about me taking Zyrtec, She told me that I need to stop taking once I start Besremi. I take it for bad allergies and my PV JAk2+. Anyone been told this or are there folks still taking Zyrtec?
