low ferritin symptoms
hi there. Wanted to know what kind of symptoms people have had with low ferritin. I have terrible muscle twitches, bad at night and am increasingly sluggish. Iron levels normal but ferritin 23 (30-150), folate 31.9 (8.83-60.8), vit b12 active 73 (37.5-188), D 98 (50-250) Predictably doctor was unconcerned

Spring Covid Booster
Hi everyone, it’s a while since I posted (I’ve been recovering from a bad fall in March) but I read the posts everyday. I have a question re the latest Covid booster in the UK. I saw my Gp a few days ago on another matter and mentioned the Covid booster as I was refused during the first round. In

Symptoms: what made you go to the GP initially ?
The first on this list is "[i]abnormal findings on a blood count such as
anaemia
or macrocytosis[/i]": now, I thought we'd be about done with this one by now: In a study of 70 PA patients, only 45 had very low cobalamin levels (less than 100 pg/ml),
anaemia
was absent in 13, macrocytosis absent in

HelloI have suffered from severe RLS for about 40 years. At the moment I am trying to control it using magnesium salt foot soaks and magnesium oil spray My question is what should my ferritin and my saturation levels be ? I requested a full blood test recently and before joining this forum I never

Help with iron results - follow up from 3 arrows nutra
Hi everyone, I did an iron panel and I’m quite amazed with my ferritin level. I have been lax with my iron supps since going to T3 only and thought I would definitely have ranked my previously low results. To my disbelief, my ferritin is the highest I’ve ever seen it! I was previously taking the 3 arrows

My body did not get the memo.
I accept that a test had been done measuring the amount of Hydroxocobalamin and Cynocabalamin that can be measured in the urine at different times after the injection and that the numbers are likely repeatable. I do not know if any testing was done on a subject that was B12 deficient. I find it unlikely

Low iron in pregnancy; Spatone recommended - what was tested?
My daughter (euthyroid, six months pregnant, vegetarian) has just been for a check up with the midwife and has been told “your iron is low. It’s 109 and we worry if it goes below 105 so you’d better get some Spatone”. I don’t know much about iron but from this site I have learned that a full iron panel

Intrinsic Factorn Antibodies test
My original doctor said i had pernicious
Anaemia
, i've had other autoimmune disease in the past. Recently i had an Intrinsic Factorn Antibodies test which came back as 2 u/ml (which is low i think).

Milestones.
Seems to me that my milestones associated with my cobalamin issues tend to be known to me only in hindsight. I thought about it and came to understand that is the way most milestones actually happen and it is only in hindsight and my narrative of the past that milestones become apparent. I need to

'Malabsorption' - what do doctors mean exactly?
Hello, When reading about causes of deficiences such as iron, folate, B12 etc. the medical information (from whichever source) lists the causes and malabsorption is always one of them. To me this seems vague compared to the other causes: eg. in the[i] Guidance for Primary Care on the Interpretation

I have now developed
anaemia
too and have terrible monthly symptoms including brain fog, confusion, fatigue, pelvic pain etc - although this isn’t all of the time. Sometimes I’m “normal”.

Neurologist’s phone call
One of Dr Bagary’s team rang this afternoon. He listened to me and seemed to understand my situation.. l requested a switch from Temgesic to Subutex, but of course he will have to consult Dr Bagary which all takes time. I also discussed dosage with him as the two sorts of tablets come in different
