16 year old b12 135, negative intrinsic factor
My 16 year old son had been experiencing dizziness, headaches, low energy and tiredness for the last year. He was sent for blood tests where it was found his b12 level was 135. He was immediately sent for an intrinsic factor antibody test and afterwards began the loading dose of b12. We just found out

Imaging at Low PSA
I was on Lupron + Casodex for a year for lymph node metastasis. In November 2019, I started ADT vacation. My last Lupron shot was in September, 2019. In February 2020, my PSA was 0.07 (slightly up from 0.06 in November 2019) and T <20. Today, I learned that my MO wants me to have chest X ray, Abdomen

Are these iron results ok?
Range wasn't given Transferrin 2.3 Transferrin saturation % 19 Iron 11 (theres a * next to it but doc didn't bring it up as a problem) Ferritin 51 BTW TSH currently 1.29 and FT4 13 on 50ug levo but this was a random test I wasn't expecting. I will be doing early morning with T3 next week

Ferritin v Haeomoglobin
Evening all I noticed on a previous post a reference to Ferritin tests, I dont think I have ever seen this test on my exhaustive list! Is it the same test as checking your HB to see if your anaemic or is it something else (Dr. dreaded Google says) to do with ' a protein in the body that contains iron

Sero Negative Arthritis
Hi There I have recently been told I have arthritis and prescribed Methotrexate. I was just looking at the letter to my doctor and it looks like the diagnosis is "Sero Negative Arthritis" I am confused at this as my initial blood test showed Rheumatoid factor raised. I don't want to take the medication

Health Anxiety
Hi guys I'm new on this forum. I feel like I have to pour my heart out. I'm 29 years old and I've been having health anxiety since my childhood. I managed to take control over it for a long time but the last couple of weeks have been very very bad. It started mid January with the bones in my hands

Blood test queries
Second bloods back from my GP. CRP levels raised. FBC raised. folic acid extremely low, low iron. I have been tested for pernicious anaemia and that wasn’t it. I am on B12 injections every 8 weeks and Vit D ampoules twice monthly. All GP prescribed I don’t have the print out sorry for my bloods to give

1 month Ablation recovery diary
Hi all, thought this might help anyone considering an ablation to get an idea of the recovery to expect. It's not designed to scare, perhaps put your mind at rest if you're post ablation and getting symptoms. Of course, everyone's recovery is different and this is by no means representative of all outcomes

NHS website - Blood tests for iron deficiency anaemia
Just happened to notice this paragraph when I was checking something else entirely.
[i]Blood tests for iron deficiency anaemia[/i]
[i]Your GP will usually order a full blood count (FBC) test. This will find out if the number of red blood cells you have (your red blood cell count) is normal

Best Iron Supplement to up Iron & Ferritin levels
Hi My Iron and Ferritin are always on the low side. Recently my iron was 13, 3 months before it was 8 and ferritin never seems to go above 30. I am currently on 1 ferrous fumarate daily 210mg, but this never seems to increase levels higher. I can't tolerate two a day as I get a very bad stomach. I have

Why is my chest tight and breathing laboured but tests are all normal?
Hello! I'm new to this site and see that others over the past several years have posted having the same symptoms that I'm having, and I'm wondering if anyone figured out what this could be: for over 6 months I've had a persistent cough, occasional stuffy nose, tightness of chest and laboured breathing

Had antibodies, now don’t
Hello. In the late 1990s I tested high positive for gastric parietal cell antibodies. Then again on three other occasions during recent years. However, last week I had a test for gastric parietal cell and intrinsic factor antibodies and to my surprise both came back negative. Is this usual? Can these

Are iron injections available privately or via the Nhs in the UK
Hi, gp's and hospital Dr's have stated iron injections are no longer available in the UK. Wondered if this is true for private? I believe i may need them as i have previously been diagnosed as iron deficient. However ferritin levels high at the time of diagnoses. I suffered brain fog, exhaustion and

Possibility of Lymphangitis Carcinomatosis as a consequence of HCC.
What is the possibility of Lymphangitis Carcinomatosis as a consequence of HCC? My father had TARE in September 2019 for his 9 cm right lobe tumour. Now he has extreme breathing difficulty. The latest PET CT shows no tumor uptake. Chest X-ray shows scattered opacities in the lungs. Doctors say likely

Sitting in hospital with suspected blood clot, had spray under my tongue, aspirin and chest x-ray. Waiting on bloods to get taken to check the levels. I don't do things by half I've had a sore leg for 4-6 weeks and now it's my chest that's sore the pains shifted
