B12 deficiency follow up.
Last week I posted about a letter I received from my GP practice telling me I was ‘borderline’ deficient (my level was 121) Anyway, today I finally got to speak with the GP who wrote the letter. She told me that earlier this year, the guidelines changed. People with a reading <115ng/L will still get

Levothyroxine sodium – Anhydrous vs. Pentahydrate
[i]If you read about levothyroxine, especially as a medicine, you will see mention of two forms used as the Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) in levothyroxine medicines: levothyroxine sodium (anhydrous) and levothyroxine sodium. Although the second form doesn’t make it clear, it could refer either

(new to forum) Struggling to diagnose/rule out Pernicious Anaemia
Hi all, I'm new to the forum (and am only in my early days of understanding PA) so apologies if my question is a bit basic. I have read through the guidelines on diagnosis for PA here http://pernicious-anaemia-society.org/diagnosis/ and can see it is hard to diagnose conclusively. I had the following

Better at night?
Hi, I'm new here and was recently diagnosed with asthma. I had a Covid-like virus at the end of March before testing was available in the UK, with breathlessness and low-grade fever. The fever lasted 18 days and still comes back occasionally. My bloods and chest x-ray were clear, and I had a negative

Anticoagulants
Possibly just clutching at straws, my GP diagnosed me with AF after I presented with mild breathlessness last December, he organised an ECG, prescribed Xarelto and referred me to a Cardiologist. By February the breathlessness was getting worse so I asked for a chest X-ray, the x-ray showed fluid on

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

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

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

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

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.
