Do I Poke The Bear?
I had my B12 jab last week, I get these every 2 months and am grateful to have them. I've suffered B12 issues since childhood, have dim memories of blood tests and B12 jabs back in the day. I changed surgeries in the early 90's due to moving and have been with this practice ever since. So I'm not sure

How UV affects us
Looking west Isle of Wight, Taken on a local walk a few weeks ago. I found this an internet explanation. Thanks to Striated Cacara. UV rays damage the cells of the skin. When the cells of the skin become damaged from UV light, it causes them to die, in a process known as apoptosis. In a person without

Vasculitis Specialist Advice/Direction Please

Hi.....again
Hi everyone, My partners liver cirrhosis had disappeared - to look at him you wouldn't know anything was wrong, he's on medication and for a while everything was good. Now he's developing a hard tummy again, I'm now worried that something is very wrong as he hasn't drank since he went to hospital back

Fatty Liver -Pain
Hi, I have had NAFLD for several years but have just started to get pain with it. I think it may have moved to NASH and possibly fibrosis or cirrhosis (nothing has confirmed that officially yet). I had a blood test and the doctor said that the liver function number was raised more so than usual. It

He woke up one Sunday bright yellow but feeling fine and it took his wife 48 hours to persuade him to go to

Help with vitamins
My ferritin and B12 keep going down despite the fact that I take supplements. Since being diagnosed with Hypothyroidism, Coeliac and SIBO they were steadily going up - I got my ferritin from 2 to 75, but in the last year it’s gone down to 39. My B12 is at 318 and was almost 500 a year ago. Does anyone
