Can Methotrexate cause lung problems?
I have been on Methotrexate for about 8 years now, even though it doesn't seem to do me much good. I am also on Leflulamide and hydroxy. I have got cellulitis and last November I developed an infected ulcer on my leg and was in hospital as it became very serious. I was only kept in for a few days because

Hi I have just discovered this group and for my first post I though I would post my heart problems story. Last year I was diagnosed with Dilated Cardiomyopathy and had a severe case of heart failure. I had just turned 38 at the time. I had a bad case of flu for a few weeks before the diagnosis. All

So many symptoms, does it sound like b12 😣
My last b12 bloods were 314 pretty much exactly 2 years ago. I've had so many scans, tests for what started out as extreme fatigue and frequent urination. Never had a solid diagnosis. Around 2 months ago the fatigue got worse and I noticed weakness/numbness tingling in my legs in a morning. I've not

Abnormal iron results
Hello, can anyone let me know if abnormal iron results are a Hashi's thing? They've been like this for a couple of years now (tests all done privately) but NHS haven't ever tested for it. Is it worth pursuing with the GP or just leave it alone. I don't take any iron supplements so I don't really

High blood levels of B12
Hi everyone, Not new here but just a little background - I was diagnosed with B12 deficiency back in 2014, I managed to produce enough evidence to satisfy my GP that I could not manage on 2 - 3 monthly injections and so I am able (currently) to access enough B12 for my needs, but this could soon change

Kidneys I'm a bit concerned
I wrote saying that I was physically very weak, and very nauseous....then I learned that my blood sodium levels had taken a dip. I'd been put on a new blood pressure med Indapamide which is a diuretic, but used as a bp med at low doses. I don't have fluid retention and stopped this after 4 days because

Does B12 deficiency deplete iron levels?
Hi everyone ! I’m a bit stumped regarding my newest iron panel results (below). First of all, I’ve been supplementing with 60 mg every other day and having an iron rich diet with vitamin C. Even so, my levels have been dropping quite dramatically: 09/29/2020 Total Iron 92 ug/dL (50-212) Iron Binding

Need help!
So I have been struggling with quite a lot of symptoms for a while (since I was 17, I am 19 right now). My family doctor did a routine blood work and found out I am deficient in vitamin d, somewhat anemic (runs in the family) and my lymphocytes are 4.4xe9/L. I did a course of vitamin d supplements since

Does a lack of intrinsic factor prevent iron absorption?
Does a lack of intrinsic factor prevent the absorption of iron too or is it simply B12? If so what would be the best way to get iron into the body and does anyone know of any decent iron supplements that are readily absorbed? Thank you all for any help

High thyroglobulin antibodies
Just an update and any advice would be appreciated. I sent off for some private blood tests as I am still experiencing pins and needles and STILL being ignored by my GP. However last week I did receive a call from an out of hours GP who listened to me and has referred me to a neurologist. So fingers

Confusing Blood Work/ Searching for Advice
Hi, I’m hoping someone can help me. I’m 27 and I have been battling many symptoms since I was about 18 years old. Most of my symptoms have been psychiatric (OCD, anxiety, phobia) but I have also had unexplainable skin rashes on my knuckles and elbows that spontaneously happen, a fainting episode, constipation
