Numbness - please help!
I was diagnosed B12D, surviving on starvation rations from NHS for a few years, got really sick after major Gynae surgery likely due to anathetics / antibiotics, had issues with memory, vision, tinnitus, breathlessness, fatigue, MS hug, loss of balance and numbness/ weakness in legs. Neurologist said

B12 deficiency post cholecystectomy
I’m curious if there is any link to cholecystectomies and B12 deficiency. I had my gallbladder out and then 8 years later, b12 deficient. Have any of you had your gallbladder out and then had B12 deficiency occur afterwards?

Survivor Fatigue
Hello Sisters, It's been 7 months since I finished my last Carbo/Taxol currently NED, been 8 weeks since my ventral hernia repair plan on getting back to exercise next week. I've been experiencing periods of fatigue I sleep a solid 9 hours a night wake up tired. Is this common during the first year

Cleared the Slate and Started Over
I felt like I was spinning my wheels, so I basically cleared the slate and I am starting all over. I went through surgical menopause in my early 40s and now I am 58, so I am trying to figure out sex hormones as well as thyroid. I know I need adequate amounts of estrogen and thyroid to feel well. My problem
