Help with supplements please
On the advice of greygoose who has said that my B12 is dangerously low despite being in the "normal" range, I'm posting to ask how I should be supplementing and what brands of supplements people recommend. This is on the basis that whilst my energy levels are slightly improved on the levo, my neurological

Blood results, what do they mean?
I now have my full blood results:- Ferritin 67 (previous 50) Transferrin saturation index 64% (previous 48%) Se Iron 35umol/l (previous 25) Can someone tell me what these results mean? Can Sue/Joolsg shed any light on these results after 3 months of iron?

What can you control?
Thinking about this as I have been running this week. Overall becoming more comfortable with the consolidation and it is becoming a habit and in this week of cooler morning temperatures, much more enjoyable. However I am no greyhound so what do I do to make my run easier for me? I have shortish hair

What is ‘fawning’ - the lesser known of the 4 F's? How is it related to trauma, PTSD and the ‘fight or flight’ response?
[i]You have probably heard of “fight or flight” responses to distressing situations. You may also be familiar with the tendency to “freeze”. But there is another defence or survival strategy a person can have: “fawn”.[/i] [i][/i] From https://theconversation.com/what-is-fawning-how-is-it-related-to-trauma-and-the-fight-or-flight-response

My serum ferritin is only just above the minimum on the reference range. I am struggling with symptoms I remember

Anyone know anything about ferritin and trans ferritin saturation levels?
OK so I got some results back re iron and B12 and would so appreciate some expert understanding from anyone of you. I believe I might have lowish ferritin. It's 39ug but my transferritin saturation is 52%, which is high. How do I increase my iron levels if I need to, with high transferritin saturation
