Is pernicious anaemia likely?
Hi everyone, I'm 20 and I've been experiencing intense B12 deficiency symptoms since December, and have been housebound or bedbound due to muscle weakness and fatigue and inappropriate sinus tachycardia. I suffered extreme weight loss, and have a symptom list as long as my arm, all of which correlate

Anti VEGF help
Hi there, I wonder if anyone else has had lasting side affects after anti VEGF? During the first injections, I had a feeling of pressure in my right eye but no pain. In my left eye it hurt quite a bit. I was left with blood in the eye for around 5 days, as well as a headache for about a week. The second

Unsure if this could be a thyroid issue and I should see an endocrinologist..?

I originally was diagnosed with pernicious anemia after experiencing severe fatigue, shortness of breathe, weight gain, along with some other more minor symptoms. I experienced these symptoms for a year until they grew in severity to

Castor Oil Packs???
I found this excellent page detailing how to heal your thyroid naturally - most I already do as have been recommended on here and I’m feeling so much better. I’d like to ask if anyone has tried Castor Oil Packs? I’ve heard excellent reviews that they do work and can help detox the liver and help heal

Help with understanding test results?
Hi everyone. In the last 18 months I have had many strange (and as yet undiagnosed) symptoms. Too many to list on here and not bore you all to death but my main worries are leg pains (intermittent claudication), leg weakness/pain, tingling hands/feet, fast heart rate when walking, left sided chest pain

Really upset and frustrated following a hematologist appointment--any ideas?
Hi all, I've posted on here several times after testing positive for the intrinsic factor antibody a month or so ago. Until then, I had had a year of general fatigue, then 3-4 months of increasingly bad fatigue, cracked corners of my mouth, shortness of breath, inability to exercise, forgetfulness/difficulty

Cirrhosis makes me sleep all day & night -- any remedies?
Hi! I'm new here. I have had NASH for many years and it has now turned into cirrhosis. I have numerous varices, and had a near-fatal episode of bleeding from my varices a few years ago. The varices have responded well to banding, but I am now astonishingly tired. Sleeping 18 to 22 hours a day is not

B12 management
With recent bloods of B12 showing 211 (200-) I have just seen gp and was told it was normal and did not require treatment. I had pdf with guidance and argued the point. Was told it had gone up from 133 (180-) 2 years ago and would take time. Advised supplements from Holland & Barrett. I advised I did

Is muscular pain and stiffness a symptom of PA?
Hi, I've just joined PA because my husband was diagnosed with PA about 2 weeks ago. At this stage we're hoping that it is just PA he has as his symptoms are not usual. He is suffering from a lot of stiffness and pain, mostly in his large muscles. This is very bad at times and at other times not so bad

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? Do you find them

Skin patches, sublingual sprays etc. Do they work?
Hi I tested negative for intrinsic factor antibodies and my b12 is quite low (see profile for numbers), but I am Hashi's and not got the treatment for that quite right yet. I have some b12 deficient symptoms (possibly, could be the Hashi's perhaps). As more b12 won't do me any harm, and working on
