New diagnosis
Hi, I have been going to my GP for over a year with fatigue, headaches, blurry vision and joint pain. She said you are a working mum, what do you expect. I pushed for vitamin tests and I thought I had reumatoid arthritis so asked for antibody testing. She phoned me with the results to say I didn't have

Supplements and blood tests
Hi I am not feeling great and have got myself confused. I am testing Vitamins D, B12 and B9, Magnesium, Selenium, Zinc, Ferritin, Sodium and Calcium tomorrow. I take iron, vitamin d, fish oils, selenium, magnesium, vitamin c. I also take a b complex but stopped this a few days ago as it contains biotin

MMA and homocysteine testing - have I already messed it up by supplementing?

VITAMIN A versus betacarotine
When I first joined TUK,in pre internet forum days,I seem to remember being advised to take betacarotine,as hypothyroidism created a problem with converting vitamin A. Can't seem to find anything about this now.Is it a good idea to take vitamin A or betacarotine?Just finished some cod liver oil capsules

Anti VEGF injections
I am having injections into my right eye every 4 weeks. My next appointment came yesterday and is actually 6 weeks since the last injection. Will 6 weeks be okay or should I try to change it? Many thanks for your advice Jane

Got the shots down to 10 weeks from 12 with GP, still massively struggling! Should I self-inject?
Hello, first post here! I was diagnosed with Pernicious Anaemia and lack of intrinsic factor over a year ago and was given the loading shots and then put on a 12 weekly B12 injection. A few months ago I went back to the GP and begged to be given them more often, and they agreed to do it every 10 weeks

ADHD "Cured"
I had made a post basically outlining my negative life experiences and how ADHD played a role and I had treated for depression (a symptom of the ADHD) for years and I was also looking for opinions about Adderall. I had taken Vyvanse for a few weeks with 0 results, may as well have been placebo. After

Taking Vitamin D with oil capsules
The advice is to take vitaimin D with the fattiest meal of the day. If take I vitamin D with evening primrose oil capsule or any other oil capsule will that have the same effect. My fattiest meal can be late afternoon/early evening and I don't want to take vitamin D that late as I have read they can

Castor oil packs anyone?
Hi - I'm curious to know who uses
castor
oil
packs on here (
castor
oil
smeared over pelvic area, covered in 2 small sheets of white towelling, hot water bottle on top), or who has tried them in the past. For those who use them - how often do you use them, and how long for at a time?

"Check your Fish Oil Capsules -- They're very likely to be rancid!"
This was the advice I received from a very sharp and nutrition-oriented internist (MD) with whom I met this week. Among other things, he encouraged me to cut open one of my capsules and just smell it. I did so and WOW -- the odor was overpowering! The oil in the capsules seems clearly rancid, and

Moved back in!
Hello BLF friends I moved back on Friday after hospital. It was a long day. Still squashed on the sofa with an electric radiator, it’s -2 but it’s ok curled up under the duvet. See who keeps me company, and takes most of the room 😃 I’m joking She has been a most supportive companion actually. It’s
