I feel like I'm typing on bone or that my fingerprints have worn away.
So, first post. I dont know where I belong yet. I'm a 40 year old female. I've had hand/wrist pain (RSI) for over 10 years in my right hand. A few years ago the flareups got worse. I started getting swelling on my pip joints (both hands). Sharp pain in my dip joints and a hot padded pain in my palm on

Morning all, Got my intrinsic factor results yesterday and they are only sitting at 2 (0.0 - 24) so am now wondering where I go from here. My aim is to get my GP to trial me on weekly injections for a month to see if there is an improvement in my balance, my mental capacity and my overall tiredness.

Is my low folate causing B12 to be low. .New to me and I'm a bit lost!
Hi there...I wonder if you can help me.. I've recently had bloods that show Serum folate deficiency at 1.8 ug/l Serum B12 was 233 ng/l All my other bloods looked fine. My GP wants to prescribe folic acid. However I am concerned that my B12 is on the low side and I have experienced all neurological symptoms

Hey folks. I'd be grateful for any insights here if anybody has the time... I've lived with this health issue for almost a decade, without treatment. It has been called many things including IBS, Fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue and my personal favourite "some sort of mental health issue". My last GP struck

B12 deficiency - more frequent injections
Hi all, newbie here :-) I was diagnosed with b12 deficiency in January after months of feeling rotten. Initially I was pleased it was 'nothing serious' and could be sorted with injections. Levels were below 150 at diagnosis, no idea of the exact figure as test didn't show them. Also had slightly

Hi all. As per first post I am newly diagnosed with Hashimotos. I take 125 mcg Levo, still have fatigue, muscle aches, eczema. Any idea when this will improve. I had my dose increased 3 weeks ago and I was diagnosed with hypothyroid in 2013 before the Hashimotos was found. I seem to have a bit of rheumatism
