Castor Oil packs to help fertility?
Like we all do Ive been on google again and found a weird craze of people soaking a cloth in castor oil then putting on their stomach, placing a hotwater bottle on top and laying there for an hour. The theory is that the oil somehow 'fixes and heals' - ive done the hot bottle while doing ivf & believe

Intrinsic factor antibody test ranges??
I'm b12 deficient first diagnosed in 2012 by a reluctant GP. He ordered an intrinsic antibody test which was 2.4 Southend lab range 0-6. So this was normal. I've had treatment and b12 comes and goes according to my levels. However it's now 2016 and I've revisited this as I believe this is auto immune

Pins and needles after b12
hi there, so I was recently diagnosed as being deficient in b12. I do not test positive for intrinsic factor but for parietal cell antibody. I had a number of neurological symptoms that came on at once a few months ago-the main symptom being a burning scalp, then on/off dizziness and an on/off feeling

New to diagnosis, not so new to the pain.
Hi all, Almost 3 years ago, when I was 30, I started having mysterious fleeting joint pains. 6 months on from there in the middle of a fitness stint I was struck down and roughly (and I mean roughly) diagnosed with gout. I was treated for this for the following 2.5 years until I finally managed to get

Seeing the endocrinologist soon for thyroid and B12 problems
Dear All, I'm new here and I wanted to ask this community about what I need to ask the endocrinologist when I see him soon. I have been posting over on the Thyroid UK site. In brief, I had been on 150mg levothyroxine for 20 + years with no problems. I had flu in March/April 2016 which sparked a health

Pregnant and b12 88 - an update
Hi everyone, Following my low b12 I was prescribed loading injections of which I have had three and starting to feel a lot better! Hurrah!!! However I had a call from a GP today to say they requested further testing and my intrinsic factor has come back as normal, therefore they believe the cause

Foods/Supplements-Vitamins: Folate
Folate, vitamin B9, is found in leafy green vegetables, as the name suggests, although there are other food sources too. However, a significant percentage of the U.S. population was deemed to be deficient by the FDA, which intervened & mandated that grains be fortified with folic acid, effective 1/1

newly diagnosed and confused
Hello - I wonder if anyone can help me - I am confused about all of this. I'm in the UK - I went to my GP recently, saying I'd been feeling stressed at work, not sleeping well and suffering from fatigue. I've had fatigue in the past since having testicular cancer a few years ago, and have been on replacement

PMR vs Polymyalgic-onset rheumatoid disease
Update to my PMR vs naltrexone comments posted here: As I concluded at the end of those comments, I actually have polymyalgic-onset rheumatoid arthritis/disease. I've been posting on NRAS. Low dose naltrexone is working very well for my RD; I have avoided prednisone and standard RD drugs, and my blood

Decent haemotologist in the NW
Hi there, I am new to this forum. Having been messed about by NHS doctors for years in relation to my Hashi's, and having scored 25 on the PA website, due to my symptoms, I would like to see a sympathetic haemotologist in the Merseyside area to discuss B12 deficiency and possible PA and treatment.

POSITIVE Gastric Parietal Cell AB/ Low Methylmalonic acid and Homocysteine.
My rheumatologist looked at my b12 levels last year along with some other tests and diagnosed me with PA. My family doctor disagrees because my b12 was at 319 and he says that is within normal ranges. I do test positive for the gastric parietal cell antibody 35.1 but he said my Methylmalonic acid

4 year battle to get injections reinstated
I have just started loading doses and hopefully will start to feel better soon. My daughter put in a complaint to nhs England after I had injections stopped after 19 years of having them. they reckon in 1992 it was not possible to have a test for intrinsic factor antibody test. I'm sure I did . they

Foods/Supplements-Vitamins: Amino Acids - Selective Restriction.
There are 20+ amino acids needed for building protein. All it takes is for one to be in short supply to cause a reduction in the growth factor IGF-I. Omnivores might be able to reduce their intake of whole protein, I suppose, but vegans would find it easier to selectively restrict a single amino acid

Never too old to Rock... but can feel ignored at PIP assessment!!
Had my PIP assessment today, both feet, left hand and both wrists in absolute agony but this meant nothing to "the nurse" who was more interested in what I can do as against what I struggle to do or cannot do. Ann had a copy of the letter sent to my Doctor's from my rheumy showing all the results and

Low heart rate, sore coccyx, twitching eyelid - thyroid test needed again?
Hi all A couple of months have passed now since I was diagnosed with low B12 and vitamin D, and supplements have certainly helped as I now have much more energy and able to exercise at the gym 3-4 times a week. However I'm still not 'normal' and the more I read the more I am convinced that it is thyroid

Colon problems or what??
Hi all- I am just curious to know if anyone out there has/had had the same symptoms as me: At Christmas (2015) I had all symptoms of a bad sinus infection/flu. It put me under the bed. I was never officially diagnosed with anything but the doctor gave me amoxicillin and sterroid. I recovered beautifully
