B12 level help
I’ve been having symptoms of low b12 so I got my levels checked. They are 119 pmol. The lab where I got them taken says normal range is 25-170 so they said I am fine and in range but everywhere else states I am deficient and low. I had a b12 injection and instantly felt better. My question is

Undetectable TSH
Hi Everyone, I just had my latest blood results which again show that my TSH levels are low. I am currently on 125mg of levothyroxine. I have been recording my results and I really don't understand what I need to do as my next step. Here is a snapshot of my results for last few years for better understanding

Just starting the journey…..
Hi All, I have recently been diagnosed with GCA, at least that’s what I am now being treated for. My story started in early Dec 2023. I am a very active 60 yr old, previously doing triathlons, still cycling, swimming, walking etc. The first symptom I experienced was excruciating pain in my hip flexor

Fast heart rate after eating sugar
Hi everyone, I have a history of a fast heart rate for unknown reasons, and have had short episodes of svt. Generally it has been under control recently due to taking a beta blocker. I have had it checked by an electrophysiologist and had an echo. This morning however I’m back to noticing my heart

No progress with Dr...and other possible symptoms?
My last posts explained my blood test results which show high antibodies but everything else within range. On this basis my Dr is not willing to do any other testing, even though I do suffer with joint pain, fatigue, hair loss etc and have a family history of hypothyroidism. I have given up gluten

Meds & raised blood sugar
My 86 year old brother, who has heart failure, was found at a routine blood test to have raised blood sugar in the prediabetic range. In response to this, he received a standard letter from the practice with the website of diabetes UK to consult for info. He can't use the internet and I was concerned

Pre diabetes update , raised uric acid,
About 2 weeks ago I had some blood tests at the GP surgery , received a text telling me I was pre diabetic and offering me to join a program to make health choices etc. I was shocked, so was my GP. She went through my history, current rehab, nutrition etc and thought the result was a false positive.

diabetes & B12 Deficiency
Hi all, for the last 4 months I’ve been on the B12 deficiency (possibly PA) path and have assumed that eventually the B12 injections will make me feel better. I’ve had all the classic symptoms. I’ve had the 6 loading doses, 2 further jabs at 6 weeks apart and I’m now on a 4 weekly regime with the UK
