Side effects of injection
Hi guys! Sorry for all the questions I just want to feel better! I got my first injection yesterday. I felt fine after and then a few hours later I was extremely dizzy. I had some lightheadedness as my main symptom to begin with but nothing like this. Is this a side effect of the injection? Does this

New diagnosis of AF and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
Hi, my 48 yr old husband has recently been diagnosed with AF and I think, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. I say I think because he was in hospital having tests and I couldn’t be there. When he came out he was in such a state and didn’t have the correct discharge note. He is extremely anxious about the whole

Anyone having blood pressure issues following IV Avastin injections?
Hi everyone; I hope all is well. I'm nearly six weeks post first intravitreal(IV) Avastin injection and ten days post second IV Avastin injection. My BP is pretty high(160/90's) and nothing else could explain it other than perhaps some chronic dehydration. I was mildly elevated at times(pre Avastin therapy

Concerned about chest pain
Hi everyone I’m just looking for some advice please and I hope I don’t offend anyone. For the past week and a half I’ve been having tightness in my chest to the left hand side - more worse so when I’m sleeping and turning through the night. It’s now gotten worse and is there 90% off the time day or night

Does anyone get head pressure after injecting Cytamen daily as a loading dose
Hi there I’ve just joined the PA society. I’ve had the same issues as many on here of symptoms not being taken seriously just because my B12 is not low enough for them. Even though the trend is down from 390 4 yrs ago to 250 last week. They won’t test for intrinsic factor. I have been ill now for approx

T3 & weight gain
Hi everyone I currently take 75mcg of cynomel. I am really struggling with my weight. I also have diabetes type 2. I haven’t had my B12 & iron tested for a long time. The GP ordered B12, Iron, Vit D tests. I have got my B12 & iron test back. I do not supplement for b12 & for iron I used to take bluebonnet

What were your Anti Parietal Cell Numbers?
What were your Anti Parietal Cell Numbers? Mine is right on the borderline of positive. Trying to figure out I have b12 of 422 and a slightly elevated MMA. I also have a negative Intrinsic Factor Antibody test

Desiccated pigs stomach
My sister recently read research from 1930s and I was wondering if anyone knows anything about eating desiccated pigs stomach. By doing so they ingested pigs intrinsic factor. I will try and find the article and add it to the post.

Medichecks testing
I have decided to take matters into my own hands and order an Intrinsic Factor test from Medichecks. I know to have it done towards the end of my B12 injection. I have requested a nurse to come to the house as I don't know anyone that can take the blood. Do you have to receive your test first and

Something I noticed
In my opinion, in the minds of doctors, there is a big difference between being B12d and having Pernicious Anaemia. For some reason people who are B12d seem to get fobbed off by the medical staff .... but if you have PA, it is seemingly a legitimate medical condition and they can't do enough to help

A Genetic Cause for Iron Deficiency
We see a steady stream of posters here who have iron-deficiency. Iron-deficiency is an important issue in hypothyroidism. Hypothyroidism can reduce our ability to absorb iron. Low iron (typically low to very low ferritin) prevents thyroid hormone being handled well by the body. Many times, low iron

Pink (blood) coloured spit at least a couple of mornings per week for the past two months - very anxious! Only ever in morning.
Hi all - I’m 28 years old, smoked (quite heavily at times) since 19/20. Quit a couple of months ago. Otherwise have always been healthy, fit and active. Have been extremely anxious/scared because, for the last 2-3 months, about once/twice a week, give or take, I wake up and spit out pink. I have no

This sounds like PA, right?
Several years ago I would occasionally get short of breath. I realized it might be B12, and specifically PA because I eat a lot of meat, and started getting B12 injections. I would get an injection, go several months without symptoms, start getting short of breath again, get another injection, etc. I

Anemia
I have been suffering from chest pains for almost 9 months.. When I went to the doctor they said there's nothing wrong with me.. Then may this year I decided to go to another doctor who checked my full blood count and discover that I have low iron it was 8.4. And low vitamin D.. He recommended that

Help with blood results please: B12, ferritin and D.
Hi all. Having had a very low B12 result back in February I got sick of waiting for my GP to re-run the tests I'd had done privately, and paid to have them done again. My results are now in and I'd appreciate your input. Background: I'm vegetarian (though not vegan and eat a lot of dairy), hypothyroid
