Gas/Bloating Relief!
I am preparing for a laparoscopic total hysterectomy scheduled on August 12th and have been told that the bloating from the gases used during operation can be painful so I’ve been researching medicines. I have come across Gas-X quite a bit but we don’t have that here as I’ve been ringing pharmacies and

Pernicious Anaemia and Epilepsy
A couple of years ago I had a problem I thought was my balance, but having a routine blood test for my med levels, I was asked to have another blood test, a few weeks later I had a letter and a very good print-out about PA, it said that taking anti-convulsants can have an effect on your Intrinsic Factor

B9 Folic acid
Hi All From reading blogs on the site, I understand that b12, b9 and iron have to be in balance with intrinsic factor to enable b12 to be absorbed in the ileum. If this is the case, why, on the NHS site does it have a list of symptoms for b9 deficiency that differ from those for b12? Wouldn’t b12 deficiency

Shortness of breath and wheezing :(
Good Day, I have been having shortness of breath and wheezing for about 10 months now. It started with heart palpitations and headaches. I went to my doctor and he put me on amlodipine 10mg. I eat healthy and exercise 4-5 times per week and fit for my age. I thought that I could cure my blood pressure

Non dietary B12 deficiency needs B12 jabs

18 years of age shortness of breath/dyspnea
Firstly I am an 18 year old male and about 3 weeks ago I noticed a shortness of breath and it has been with me ever since I feel the need to keep taking a deep breath. I have had a chest X-ray, ecg and ekg and all came back normal/clear. About 2 days prior to the breathlessness I had been vaping on nicotine

GP questioning why serum b12 above range if body gets rid of excess b12.
Went to gp yesterday with my daughter to have her 12 weekly jab. Her last blood test ( meant to be checking ferritin but did b12 even though she’d emailed saying not to check it). Showed b12> 1500 - this test was 2 wks after an injection at the gps (but she SI anyway which they don’t know as would

ECG test results
Hi there I am a 49 year old woman with a family history of heart disease. Following long lasting heart palpitations I had a ECG and it showed TWI in leads V1-4 + aVL. I am being referred for an echocardiogram. The cardiologist didn’t seem too concerned and my chest X-ray and bloods were all clear. However

Feel like the life is slowly being sucked out of me, and I’m treading in quick sand! Please help!?
Hi, I know I only posted my results recently, but when I saw the GP, it was a different one than last time, as the original didn’t have any appointments and I needed to see someone sooner for another reason. The upshot of my consult was that I ended up in tears begging to be treated as an individual

I have just made another post about my reduced mobility so apologies for that. I was diagnosed with SLE in January 2018.

Latest labs look good?
Here's the deal. I've felt terrible since June 2017 when I was diagnosed with postpartum thyroiditis. I likely had Hashimotos for many years prior but wasn't ever diagnosed. At the time of dx, my TSH was over 100 and free levels were tanked. Symptoms flooded in over the following months including crushing

State of the art testing for PA?
I've been pursuing PA as a possible explanation for my numerous long term health issues, beginning injections on 6/3. As many here report, results have been mixed; apparent initial improvement followed by some issues worsening. I understand the mechanism of PA is presence of an antibody against Intrinsic

Low ferritin and high transferrin saturation

Thyroid blood tests
I had my thyroid removed 3 years ago but have never managed to have satisfactory results since and it was found I needed T3 which I was given but taken off last September because it costs too much. I had tests which proved I needed it and was given it back in April. I have consistently had a suppressed

Low ferritin, normal hb , has anyone had infusions
Hi I currently have a ferritin level of 8 and feel terrible. I have a history of low ferritin and it hasn’t been higher than 25 for 4 years. I’m no longer able to take iron tablets because of side effects. My gp Has recommended iron infusions and from the research I’ve done could greatly improve my quality
