Hello all, I normally write on the thyroid site because I have Hashimotos, but today I am writing to the hearties among us regarding my husband. He has had two mini strokes in the past, one was called a TIA and the other was called a mini stroke. His first one was twenty years ago and the second one

Daily multivitamins do not help people live longer, major study finds
The taking of general multivitamins has long been questioned here on this forum. The article specifically identifies iron: [i]Meanwhile iron, which is added to many multivitamins, can lead to iron overload and raise the risk of cardiovascular disease, diabetes and dementia.[/i] I think we'd also advocate

Hi everyone. After being diagnosed with gastritis (cause unknown) in December I took the advice of the gastroenterologist and started Omeprazole treatment. I’ve been having stomach issues for at least 7 years. After four months of treatment I was experiencing breakthrough symptoms so decided to taper

B12 supplementation query
My active B12 level in 2022 was 66.1 pmol/L and following advice on our wonderful forum I began taking Thorne basic B complex. This raised my levels to 78.6 pmol/L in 2023. This year my B12 level is 76.3 pmol/L. So it hasn't continued to increase to the recommended 100 pmol/L. For the past ten days

Folate/Folic acid supplement
I have been using Folic Acid 5mg oral supplement EOD since starting b12 injections just over three weeks ago. I was getting some loose bowel, so was advised to try Methylfolate every day instead. However I am wondering if I should be using injectable Folic 5mg instead. My problem is malabsorption due

Strange definition of pernicious anemia
Found this questionable definition of pernicious anemia on a Johns Hopkins web page about gastritis: [i]

Since taking over my PA treatment with frequent injections, my symptoms have greatly ameliorated. However, there's one thing I hadn't anticipated. Recently I've had to have a couple of teeth extracted. Each time I've ended up in casualty because the bleeding wouldn't stop, and wondered about B12.

About two weeks ago I put a post on here about my anxiety around changing my treatment plan from Hydroxy to Peg Interferon. I had been sent the vaccine but not given any specific instruction about how to self inject. I appreciated the advice I was given from others who had trodden this path before

Once I start supplementing B12, will my B12 blood tests still be accurate?
I would like to know if blood tests will still be a useful measure of my B12 levels, once I have started supplementing B12. I would be testing active B12. The reason I ask is that I have read pernicious anemia people saying that once they start injections (and supplements too maybe), that the B12 blood
