Tubular Adenomas
Hi. I wasn't sure if I should start a new post for this, or just add to my post in Oct/Nov, so I decided to do both. I hope that's okay. I had my colonoscopy two weeks ago. Results were: - internal hemorrhoids - diverticuli - polyps (I don't know size and how many until I see my dr next week

Borderline TSH during cancer treatment
Hi folks! Haven't been on here for some time but in the interim I have been treated for Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia. Had chemo in September last year which was successful (minus a few hiccups like fungal pneumonia that put me in ICU!) and currently on home oral chemo, antifungals and antibiotics daily

New Study : Vitamin B12 boosts cellular reprogramming
[i]" In the context of aging, although most diets across the world contain sufficient amounts of B12, older individuals often present poor B12 absorption and, therefore, partial deficiency of B12. Our work suggests that this could in part contribute to the lower tissue repair capacity of older people

Bloated Feeling?

Endoscopy frequency
I had an endoscopy when first diagnosed with PA and benign polyps were found. That was nearly 7 years ago; does anyone know if this test should be done regularly? Also, I have had symptoms recently that worry me a bit but they could be a result of the tail end of a lingering virus. I know that PA increases

Blood work
I recently got my blood tested so I could check for ferritin levels and my ferritin was at 329. I had gotten my blood test a year ago when I first saw the doctor for RLS but they’d didn't test ferritin levels at that time. My doctor just messaged me about my new results and said my results showed elevation

Panpharma B12 Depot out of stock at Apohealth - now what do I do?
Hi I made the mistake of ordering Panpharma Vitamin B12 from Apohealth recently but when it came the box looked a bit different and I realised I'd not ordered the "depot" version. I had cobalamin not hydroxy. So, annoyed with myself, I sent them back. I kept forgetting to reorder. Came to do it
