Should I have been tested for PA before starting loading doses?
Hi everyone, I'm currently on my loading doses and have a sneaking worry that my treatment/investigatons into PA aren't as efficient as I'd previously thought - I'd appreciate some advice as I sometimes find the clinical information online very complicated/contradicting. Firstly they will only give me

The difference between intrinsic factor antibody test and MMA
Hi all and thanks in advance for any help. I have long suspected I have a B12 problem even though my active B12 blood tests are showing ok. I understand that there are conditions that mask the deficiency and stop the B12 actually being absorbed (if I understand rightly). I have the autoimmune condition

Plasma viscosity?
Dear forum members After a month of suffering unpleasant flare up symptoms my GP eventually ordered blood tests for C Reactive protein, plasma viscosity, ANA, ANCA and rheumatoid factor. I looked up the results on my patient record and saw that plasma viscosity was normal and no further action required

I need help please. I have heart palpitations, headaches, hair loss and psychosis at same time. Doctor found severe anemia and thinks it is pernicious. She wants to do labcorp test for pernicious but they rule out if b12 normal. But you can still have pernicious with normal b12. Please what test is helpful

No one will believe this
If anyone has a similar problem I think there is little risk in trying the

hot pack. I can't wait to cath again and see if it is still easy.

Assistance with Potential misdiagnosis.
Hi All, I was unsure where to turn and you guys are my last hope! In July 2020 I was diagnosed with MS ( Multiple Sclerosis ) due to having some numbness and tingling in legs and foot and cognitive problems ( forgetful and thinking issues ) and extreme fatigue.
