Newly diagnosed possible Autoimmune gastritis and B12 deficiency
I've recently started B12 injections under the care of a private doctor. He gave my first injection and I'm doing self injections at home (1mg hydroxocobalamin). My B12 was at 292 so a little above the NHS range but clearly deficient. I initially saw him to arrange an iron infusion for iron deficiency

Confused, again
So had bloods repeated on NHS. All except 4 came back, on my GP no reference ranges. Got print outs and have been checking every day for missing results. Just now found 2 more on my GP. , had been waiting on T3 vit D and IFA and TTG (coeliac). One says intrinsic factor ab screen test but no

What diagnostic test(s) are usually done to test for Pulmonary Hypertension?
Hi there. I've recently been referred to see a Pulmonary Hypertension Consultant (by my Cardiologist, due to signs in the Echo it could be intermediate probability of PH). The appointment with the Pulmonary Hypertension isn't until September (due to NHS waiting times). My question for the group is,

Before You Book (or recommend) That Iron Infusion
Please read the article embedded in this post to FreeGaza. In my unprofessional opinion, if you feel you must have an infusion then ask for Iron Dextran. Dextrose is a single molecule sugar that theoretically should be able to cross the BBB. Injectafer and iron sucrose, in my humble opinion, don’t stand

Could do with some advice.

I've bee struggling with intermittent chest pains for around 6 months now, sometimes with a few weeks between not having an issue

Should Doctor have prescribed B12 injections?
Please advise if anyone else has experienced similar, and what treatment was. Feeling very tired and on occasions breathless when walking uphill. Blood test showed small red blood cells, very low iron and borderline B12 deficiency. Prescribed iron tablets twice a day. Nothing prescribed for low B12.
