Headaches
Hi everyone I’ve been having headaches almost daily for a few weeks now and I’ve been prescribed beta blockers and Sumatriptan which didn’t work at all so I contacted my GP again and was prescribed Naproxen and Omeprazole which also did not work Last week I took a trip to A&E and they took blood tests

Silent reflux or asthma?
I'm undiagnosed - now 3 months post-suspected-Covid, still with laboured breathing, and an "itchy" and often sore chest especially on the right side. I've had 2 chest infections. Most days I'm pretty good in the mornings, then it gets tight after lunch and progressively worse until after dinner. Night

Hi 👋
Hi I’m new here and just wanted to ask a bit of advice. Since November last year I’ve had a cough, I went for a chest X-ray came back clear was given antibiotics and flixnase and told it could be postnasal drip. Fast forward to March symptoms not improving and getting worse. I stated taking antihistamines

Stomach acid and PPI's
Hi I've, like everyone else with PA, have intrinsic auto antibodies, I've also gastric reflux, a hiatus hernia and chronic gastritis/duodenitis (had more than one gastroscopy done which showed it). I'm being treated with Lanzoprasole, on the orders of my gastroenterologist, for excess stomach acid

Does anyone have asthma and COPD overlap syndrome? how common is this syndrome or is it often misdiagnosed?
My GP suspects I may have asthma/COPD overlap. Due to the current pandemic I’m unable to have spirometry test or chest x-Ray. I had asthma as a child and I’m an ex-smoker. My asthma has manifested again in the year. I am worrying whether my breathing will ever be stable again! The only COPD symptom I

Too much b12
Hi All I am a vegetarian/vegan and became b12 deficient around 7 years ago which, in my opinion, was caused by lack of b12 in my diet and my doctor putting me on omaprezole. I have received injections up until April 8 when my surgery cancelled injections and put me on 50 ml tablets twice daily. The only

Hands getting worse
Hi, I’m still not diagnosed for sure but am having problems with hands on & off now for weeks. Bad day today, knuckles throbbing & tingling, wrists hurt. All joints in hands feel like seizing up, body stiff as well after rest. Does this sound like RA? Rheumatoid Factor 55, ultrasound, bloods normal.

Positive intrinsic factor
Hi everyone, I’m a newbie here! The doctor have confirmed my intrinsic factor is positive and therefore, I will need b12 injections for the rest of my life. This is not a complete shock, but I was wondering if so could do anything else to ease my symptoms, or recommend anything that will be useful

Does PA get worse in time?
Hi Folks Just a question of interest really. I have autoimmune thyroid disease (underactive). Back in summer 2018 I had borderline low active b12 (34 range 25.1-165) and symptoms, but tested negative for intrinsic factor antibodies (I know this is a test with a high possibility of a false negative).

Breathlessness
I often get a feeling that is like I cant get a deep breath. I have had a lung function test and chest x ray and everything came back as normal. It can come and go as well.
