New blood test after speaking to a doctor about stomach problem.
Any help understand these blood works please. Would be helpful. I’d spoke to GP on Monday and she said she run blood test, and go for a scan as well to see what’s going on. Blood test came back the same day. (But used to this by now) but would be interested to know what is going on. Thanks for any

Zinc carnosine
I would like to try zinc carnosine for my gastritis and heartburn but am worried it may give me restless legs. Does anyone have any experience of this. An extract reads Carnosine is a naturally-occurring compound made from the amino acids beta-alanine and histidine.

A bit about me
I worked in a Haematology laboratory for over 40 years until retirement. In that time I saw the introduction of automation into Blood Counting, Coagulation testing, and later, B12, Folate, Ferritin, Intrinsic Factor antibodies and Erythropoietin assays. In addition to routine laboratory work, I participated

How long will it take for the B12 jab to work
I had my B12 injection about 4 days ago and feel even worse than before it, B12 deficiency the same as pernicious anaemia? I was also diagnosed with iron deficiency anaemia, together with fibromyalgia I am feeling rubbish. How long will the injection take to work, please?

NICE Guidance on Chronic Fatigue Syndrome delayed
Most of us here will know the life-draining fatigue that often accompanies systemic autoimmune conditions. Many will have co-diagnoses of CFS or ME. For a long time, people with ME/CFS have argued that these are "real", medical conditions, rather than the effects of psychological dysfunction or deconditioning

SIBO and Elevated Liver Enzymes
I have had gastro issues the last two months after using a proton pump inhibitor in May and was finally diagnosed with SIBO on Monday. My GI started me on Rifaximin and Neomycin last night. She did a liver function panel test before I started on the antibiotics and the AST was 52 and the ALT was 73.

B12 deficiency tongue photo
I recently wrote about burning mouth syndrome- and how for diagnosis to be considered for oral dysaesthesia as a primary condition would require exclusion of all secondary conditions: B12/folate/ferritin, autoimmune conditions and salivary gland disorders. My angular cheilitis issues have been resolved

Low stomach acid tests
I asked some questions about B12 and Diarrhoea here: https://healthunlocked.com/pasoc/posts/145437733/vit-b12-and-diarrhoea Some people came back suggesting that low stomach acid (hypochlorhydria or achlorhydria) is a cause of stomach acid. I did the sodium bicarbonate "burp" test and it seems I might

Adding good news
Hi all. I thought I would pop in and share some good news. I have refused to take all the drugs that have been offered to me. But even experimentation with lower levels of hydrocodone and OxyContin have been uncomfortable enough that I refused to go in the opioid direction. What has worked for me and

5mg Folic Acid
I’m really confused and hope someone may be in a position to offer clarification on this question. My folate levels have always been mid range, regardless of frequency of injections or sublingual tablets however, I’m often seeing advice being given on forums that you should always take 5mg folic acid

My Labs
Just got my labs back (keep in mind that I had a B12 injection from my former GP on June 30th). Not sure what to make of it. I have had two loading doses of B12 the last two days. Should I stay the course on the injections- daily for a week, then weekly for 4 weeks, then monthly? Intrinsic Factor: 1.1
