I've had so many blood tests searching for an answer to why I'm so tired depressed and 'achey' all the time. Although I think my GP is just humouring me with the tests. My original B12 level was 91. But 6 months later it is now approx 500. That was taken 2 weeks after my 3 monthly injection. Also the intrinsic factor test was negative, so GP said I don't have PA! I was clinging on to the PA diagnosis as it gave me a reason. Now all I know is my B12 is low and now my Vitamin D is also low. I have doubled my antidepressant started taking the pill and started HRT ....... I'll try anything if it makes me feel like getting up in the morning.
It's just hard arranging appointments and getting time of work, when there doesn't seem to be any diagnosis or solution.
I'm a 51 year old woman from Scotland.
