I was diagnosed with PA and low D in November 2016. I have been doing SI of cyano daily along with cofactors. Also follow protocol for Vit D deficiency. I would like to have my blood levels tested. Is thee a list of what blood tests to ask for? Thank you. I live in USA.

Hi Nancyj345 I'm not medically trained but I would think that maybe it would be good to have your Iron and Folate levels checked as these work together with B12.

There would be little point in having your serum B12 checked unless it came out very low

Do you have any neurological symptoms?

There are others on here who will be able to give you good advice and I wish you well
