Advice welcome
I have just been diagnosed with autoimmune gastritis. I have had gastrointestinal problems for years, since the age of 18, and I am now 44.

Anecdotes of cures
Is anyone aware of any anecdotes of cures for PA? All over the internet there are stories of people curing cancer through juice diets etc. There are also plenty of people claiming to have cured their autoimmune disease through diet. But you don't really see anything about anyone curing PA. And by

Intrinsic Factor vs Parietal Cell Antibodies
If a person tested positive for the intrinsic factor antibody but negative to the parietal cell antibody, would that mean that the parietal cells in the stomach are not under attack, only the intrinsic factor that those cells produce? And would that mean that the stomach might be still producing acid

Help/suggestions with BH thyroid test results
I have just received the results from my Blue Horizon thyroid +11 test today. Blood test was taken first thing in the morning, finger prick method, fasting. I have not been diagnosed yet with a thyroid disorder, but am pretty sure that's the case as my mother has and grandmother had thyroid disease.

I feel like I'm typing on bone.
I dont know where I belong yet. I'm a 40 year old female. I've had hand/wrist pain (RSI) for over 10 years in my right hand. A few years ago the flareups got worse. I started getting swelling on my pip joints (both hands). Sharp pain in my dip joints and a hot padded pain in my palm on my dip joints

Morning all, Got my intrinsic factor results yesterday and they are only sitting at 2 (0.0 - 24) so am now wondering where I go from here. My aim is to get my GP to trial me on weekly injections for a month to see if there is an improvement in my balance, my mental capacity and my overall tiredness.
