Oral b12 or injections
Diagnosed with low b12(130) had loading injections, not heard from gp since. I started self injecting hydroxycobalamin but continued feeling rubbish and have been waiting for neuro results due to weakness strange sensations etc . I don’t think anything has come up in those investigations so am left with

Hi there. I’m 33 never smoked, but I’ve had an ache in right breast when I cough it isn’t all the time mostly morning and sometimes go days without it. Idk if it’s actually my back as I have a right shoulder blade problem.. I first was told it probably just infection in getting rid of as lungs sound

BAT, dutasteride, and my search for truth, Part 2 of 2
I believe it was Patrick who said “When 5alpha-reductase acts on T to produce DHT, this kicks off production of an enzyme to clear DHT from the cell. DHT has a very narrow window in which to promote growth. One of the metabolites of DHT is an estrogen - 3beta-adiol - which happens to be the natural

I’m not getting better :( advice??
Hi, New here.. Hoping to get some info on how long after loading doses before I should start to feel better I’m 23 years old and have always been very active (running, at the gym all the time). For the last few years I would say I’ve had a generalised level of fatigue (often having naps), but nothing

So the doc did some bloods....
Hi all. You may or may not recall I had some bloods carried out privately. The doctor wasn’t keen on them so order these. Luckily my endo accepted blue horizons tests and upped my levo to 100mg anyway. That was two weeks ago however I have waited on adding any vits etc until I got these back. Haven’

Soy Isoflavones and Levothyroxine
I've recently started taking soy isoflavones to counteract some post- menopausal symptoms. There seems to be conflicting reports re the effects , some say take the supplements hours after the Levo, some say don't take it as it interferes with the absorption of thyroxine. I've started to feel a bit better

Feels like I’m on life’s roundabout again.
I’ve been plodding away in the background trying my best to get answers without going down too many invasive routes as it terrorises me.Everything bad for me started with a severe head jury after one of my many falls and sheer neglect with my injuries and no Investgations as to why it had happened in

Doctor won't prescribe Iron
So long story short, in the past I have been frequently low in Iron. Was therefore prescribed Ferrous Fumarate about 2 years ago and since then I have used SpaTone, as well as eating more red meat. For that reason I stopped requesting FF (as I prefer something gentler on stomach). Also supplemented

Blood Test Results - some changes
I was tested positive for PA and the GP asked for a full blood test to check iron levels. From what I can see the haemoglobin estimation and MCV are in normal ranges which should mean that I don't have iron deficiency, but I do have B12. As usual, the MCH and MCHC are elevated. There is also an increased

Am I unreasonable for requesting a full iron panel with these results?
GP said on the phone that nothing in my FBC suggested anemia and that my 'iron was tested in August and was fine'. I didn't have my notes in front of me so got flustered but I have an appointment this afternoon and I'd like to challenge her on it but I want to make sure I'm right! Edit: The photo looks

Haptocorrin and B12 Absorption
I've pasted below an excerpt from a paper which described how low vitamin D levels can cause insomnia. It also discussed why low vitamin D can lead to B12 deficiency. During my many, many hours of online research I've never read anything about this, has anyone else? Why vitamin D deficiency can lead

B12 serum level of 52
Hi I’m new here and just looking for advice. 12 years ago I was diagnosed with b12 deficiency with a level of 52 ng/l. At the time my symptoms were brain fog, fatigue, poor memory. My doctor said the b12 wasn’t causing my symptoms because I wasn’t anemic. He said I didn’t need injections and gave me
