Panicking- high platelets
Blood tests showed high at 525, my GP is referring me for a chest X-ray, camera down the throat, uterine and colon tests too. Have smoked 20 a day for 30odd years. He said high level can indicate cancer. So scared. Has anyone else had this please?

Please advise on B12
Having had chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia as well as Hashimotos for several years. My symptoms have increased since being treated for h pylori. I am beginning to wonder if I am deficient in B12. My blood tests are always high in range or massively above. I am thinking of getting private blood test

Colonoscopy side effects
Hello, since I had digestive issuess, such as bloating, belly pain and sometimes diarrhea, my doctor suggested I should do a colonoscopy. The preparation was the worst part. I think that laxative totally irritated my bowels and there were loads of orange mucus coming out of my bowels. The doctor said

Do I have iron deficiency?
Hi all. Can anyone please have a look and see what they think of my results, if I am possibly deficient in iron? To me it looks like my iron serum & transferrin saturation are on the low side. However my ferritin is in the normal range, so my doctor has said I'm fine. BUT I don't feel fine. I have

Low Ferritin
Hello, I was diagnosed with iron-deficiency anemia and I am Vitamin B12 deficient. I received a blood test in June, and it showed that my ferritin level was a 4! My doctor immediately put me on prescription iron (I said absolutely not to an iron infusion), but I had to stop taking the iron because it

Bronchiectasis since 2007
Amazing I am still here! Just had a bout of pneumonia- they mixed it up with a COPD exacerbation - and I’ve been really ill since last December - you know Zombie- the movie- I could have starred in that with no make up - luckily saw an out of hours doctor who prescribed the right antibiotics. She recommended

I had my first dose of Gazyva or

Iron Tablets vs Liquid
Last ten months, I’ve been taking 2 x 65mg Ferrous Fumarate tablets daily for iron deficiency. There is improvement in results albeit it’s been gradual. Currently travelling and come across a liquid preparation, called FPur by Althea, elementary iron, 0.1ml = 2mg. Can anybody advise whether then,

Iron supplementation and TSH levels
I don't know how it is in the UK, but dealing with drs and lab tests here in the US can be highly frustrating. My Endo doesn't check for Ferritin, Iron, etc with my TSH tests. So I did them myself. I also have an acupuncturist who has been helping me as a functional dr since most Western Drs here

Cycle One Done - This has been the toughest week!
This is a long post - please accept my apologies in advance. Cycle one effectively done (next week chemo free just consultant follow up). Week started Monday with picc line. That was a little uncomfortable but nowhere near as bad as I thought. Unfortunately I mentioned some back pain and the team insisted

Intrinsic Factor Antibodies Gone.
My doctor says I have no more intrinsic factor antibodies in my latest blood work. Initial levels were 1.2 (range 0-1.1) What does this mean? I don’t have a print out from my newer lab results or I’d supply updated numbers. Parietal cell antibodies were high (103; scale 0-20 range) on my initial results
