Pneumonia
About a week ago, dad started running a fever. They did some cultures and a sputum test. It came back that he had pneumonia and a UTI. So they started him on some antibiotics. He didn’t have much of a fever the last couple of days but then today he had another fever. It got as high as 101.8. His oxygen

Another Month ........ Another Fracture!🙄
I hope everyone is as well as can be expected? (Vain hope probably, but worth a try)!😉🤞Fingers also crossed for some nice bank holiday sunshine for everyone! (Cloudy here today). I posted in February about how I'd very stupidly fallen down a couple of stairs and suffered a periprosthetic femur fracture

Is it normal to feel super tired after injection?
Hi guys, I was recently diagnosed with PA following 2 positive intrinsic factor antibody tests. I had my first injection of B12 a couple of days ago and have felt super tired and a bit nauseous since. Now I feel tired anyway most of the time, but its been worse this last couple of days. Is this normal

Would appreciate any insight on this please. Am a newbie!
Positive for antibodies to Intrinsic Factor, extensive neurological involvement, but high active b12 - can anyone explain the latter? I have been supplementing for years with b12 spray, for years, on advice of functional medicine Dr. Many thanks in advance for your replies.

Cost of Tests
Can someone please tell me what it would cost to have Pernicious Anemia tests done privately? I had NHS bloods sent off a while ago and my GP told me they were all negative. When I asked to see the results she was reluctant to show me. I got to see them eventually and most of them were listed as '

Yippeeeee🤗
I haven’t run since 5th May, advised to stop by the doc whilst a small heart defect was investigated. I’ve been pretty down in the dumps since then. Walking about 6-7 km a day but it’s not the same and I’ve put on a kilo. Anyway, a chest X-ray has shown a normal heart and partially knackered lungs

Platelet count high
Scared about high platelet count. I am 35, I have ulcerative colitis and rheumatoid arthritis. Since last November, I have had regular blood monitoring and a chest x ray. I have been on methotrexate since then and prednisolone for a year (5mg, now weaning off). My doctor always says my bloods are great

Declining b12
Hi all, since my last post my Medichecks active b12 came in at 39, which is borderline. Doctors retested my serum b12 and it has come down from 209 to 190, when I actually started taking supplements! I fought my GP and had an intrinsic factor antibody test today (haven’t taken b12 since April 27th so

Blood tests negative apart from ANA
I’ve posted a few times and appreciate all your helpful responses, so thought I would post one more time! I had follow-up appt after blood tests, but not with the lovely Rheumatologist I first met, instead it was with her registrar who wasn’t very interested in me now that all my tests were negative

Blood tests
I have Hashimotos, B12 Def, lichen sclerosis, GERD, Vit D Def, Diverticulitis and a ANA 1:80 Speckled pattern and had one appointment so far with a rheumatologist. I’m on the emergency list for a full hip replacement, which I’ll hopefully have done in Approx 4 months time. When the Pandemic hit, I

One (or more) steps forward- at last!
Some 17 months after being diagnosed with severe asthma, I have finally had my first hospital respiratory appointment! Up to now, despite being on many medications and continuous steroids since January, I had not even had any blood tests or chest x-ray. So on Friday I saw an asthma nurse, physio and

Xeloda Questions
I’ve been on Xeloda since late October, and love it for the most part. My only issues are my hands and feeling gassy. My hands aren’t peeling, but I think they’ve lost maybe 25% of their sensation, and they feel like sausages that are about to explode! Does that keep getting worse, or does it hit

Why wait 2 weeks
I had a routine chest X-ray last week . Today I had a letter from my GP asking me to make a telephone appointment in 2 weeks time ... why ? If there’s no change why not say it’s ok ... if there’s a change why wait 2 weeks ..? I have asthma. Bronchiectasis. COPD

Newly diagnosed with exercise induced asthma.
Started C25K last summer and completed it. I was sooo chuffed! I found it hard but I didn’t give up. Winter came, the cold air and wind was hard to contend with and I found it hard going again. I persevered and got to a stage of managing 5K every other day. Spring sprung and that did me in! Pollen!

Advice for when GP won't act?
Hi guys, I've now had a second intrinsic factor antibody test (privately). Both my private tests came out positive for IF, but the middle test I took, which was with the NHS, came out negative. The GP though thinks I have chronic fatigue syndrome as my cells are normal size and B12 blood levels are coming
