Esophagus problems
Hello from Florida, U.S. I have had this condition for years. Also hospitalized with what they thought was heart attack. My problem comes from eating anything dry and swallowing big pills like calcium. Millions of tests by gastroenterologist. One of my problems I have been told is from swallowing

Whether to push for a diagnosis
Hello All, my first post and I'm afraid it will be a long one but perhaps someone has had similar experiences and can help. I am male and 53 years old. I’ve had a diagnosis of Raynaud’s since my teens. Over the last ten years or so I developed visible red veins on the backs of my hands, forearms, feet

Antivirals
Hi All, I tested positive on Wednesday via LFT so sent my priority pcr which came back Thursday as positive. Told I would be called within 24 hours regarding anti virals. 40 hours goes by and nothing. I then called my GP who said no point calling us you need to call 111. So I called 111 and after another

News that worried us and studies that gave us hope (04/2022).
This is the information that gave us hope while my father was alive and has given hope to many since then (March 2012). 1. News that worried us. In the coming decades the number of Parkinson's disease patients is feared to increase very worryingly, to double by 2030 (Dorsey 2007) and even to triple

OPTIMAL TEST LEVELS ?
Can someone please briefly address my recent test levels. Please be aware I am decidedly unscientifically minded and find it hard to follow the science…and certainly to retain it ! So ..please give me numbers… I can’t quite get the whole iron picture ..serum iron, transferrin and serum ferritin… But

Does anyone take supplements as well as B12 injections ?
Hi Everyone My doctors have started me on B12 injections and I’ve had 2 loading doses out of the 6 so far . I’m wondering if people still take their B complex supplements on top of the injections so you get all the B vits still ? And if so what strength? I’m feeling very tired today after my second

Hiatus hernia
I have been diagnosed with hiatus hernia last year. My main symptom is on the right hand side, constant rib pain and side pain. I've had abdomen scan nothing showing and chest x ray. Does anyone suffer similar symptoms on right side? Cheers

IFA & PCA blood tests
Hi, I’ve been booked for bloods for intrinsic factor and parietal cells antibodies, the GP said they are antibodies so no need to stop B12 before hand. I’m reading both 48 hours and/or 2 weeks clear of injections, I don’t want to mess these tests up but at the same time am desperate to get the B12.

CSR and strabismus surgery. Plus benefits of CBD for CSR
Hi guys I was recommended for strabismus surgery.. they said it was I was a great candidate but it’s for both eyes. I’ve never really had it as bad as others may have.. it’s slight but as I’ve gotten older it’s starting to get worse. I’m also a lucky enough to have CSR and I’m curious if anybody has

It seems The Pernicious Anaemua Society are doing a survey. Great I was keen to help. Only if you've got a diagnosis it seems I read on. I rang the helpline for the first tine in over 3 years of being a member to clarify this. I had an answerphone and was called back a few hours later. I explained
