homocysteine, intrinsic factor and Parietal cell antibody tests results?
Hi, I have been reading other posts and now have received my fathers results for the B12 followup tests. I convinced his GP to give him B12 injections of hydroxy 1000mg over a 2 week period back in September. His neurological symptoms improved dramatically, depression and suicidal thoughts disappeared

A Bit of a Setback With B12 Def Blood Tests
I have been waiting for test results, now into week three. These were Private ones, owing to obstructive attitude by GPs in local surgery. The surgery ( person on desk, maybe the cleaner?) didn`t know anything about any results, but might have had difficulty typing my name into the system. My Christian

Is this normal?
Hello :) I had a laparoscopy on 18th November, and had endo removed by laser (Diathermy??) My surgeon was very brief after my surgery and didn't really explain a lot, just that the endo had been removed and that my pain should go away (I suffer from daily chronic pelvic and back pain, mostly a burning

Real dilemma. What would you do?
Hello all Went gluten free September 9th, fed up with discomfort and bloating. Felt I may have B12/Pern anaemia too. Stopped PPI which I had been on for years. By last week, so full of acid. Doc did Intrinsic Factor blood test Friday MMA too. Gone back on Lansaprazole. Went back on gluten Friday evening

Definition of PA
My nuero has sent me a letter stating that I do not have PA as I was never anemic and that the intrinsic factor test my GP took was not proof of PA ( though she says I do have PA) , yet he admits that I have b12 def with irreversible nuero damage so severe that he initially dx it as a combination

Feeling heard
Went to gp, feeling good that I've been heard! being referred to Derm regarding some symptoms, looking at possible psoriatic arthritis due to nail changes and joint pain, stiffness. (See pics) something I've considered for a few years now. She's running tests on nails, bloods and urine. ANA screening

I'm new, scared and anxious and facing long NHS wait...
Hello Everyone. I'm new here and feeling anxious. I hope you don't mind me telling you my story and asking for a bit of advice. About six weeks ago one of my fingers started feeling really stiff and painful first thing in the morning. I ignored it for a bit, but it then progressed to all my fingers

Great visit with GP at new surgery! Thankyou all for the great advice, I feel like I've hit the jackpot.
Thank you all for your help and advice. You taught me enough to get b12 jabs not only for the 6 loading jabs over 2 weeks but 1 jab daily until no further improvement is felt by me. I was offered the 6 loading doses, but explained that there had been an update in 2014. My thyroxine has been bumped up

Latest Thyroid Test Results
I can't tell you what a lifeline this forum has been for me. I have followed all of the advice previously given and am no longer on my knees, for that I will be eternally grateful. Just to recap.... September 2016 I was desperate. Brain fog, tripping on words, pain in arms and legs in bed was a nightmare

B12 Problem - Oral Contraceptive Pill - Does this sound correct
Back in Oct 15 I suddenly started feeling really tired, could barely stay awake in the afternoon, always cold, ulcers in mouth and pins/needles in hands and feet. I was told by my Doctor that I am B12 deficient but I have now been told by a Consultant Gastroenterologist it is Chronic Fatigue syndrome

Will oral B12 complicate blood test results?
Hello, My apologies if this post is redundant--I thought I posted it yesterday, but it seems to have vanished. I was diagnosed with low Vitamin D in April and low B12 (148) in August. I am in the US. I received daily injections for 7 days, followed by 4 weekly injections, and now monthly "forever.

Help with understanding test results, please?
Hi all, I am going to see my GP tomorrow and I am going through my blood results Does anyone know what is this new assay in use since May 2015? Why do they say 'intrinsic factor ab to follow?' Is this a different test to Intrinsic Factor antibody? Why didn't they do the parietal cell antibodies? End

Data Protection Act and proof to my dads GP that he CAN have his blood test results!
Hi everyone, I wonder if anyone can help me. The NHS have let my dad down terribly this year, and now today his surgery in Crawley will not give him the latest blood results that I wrote to his GP to ask to be done! This is despite having given results to us 4 times this year with no problems! Today
