How to know if IBS??
Hi All Every now and again I get things in my head where I think could this be more than IBS. I think even more so with all the bowel C symptoms going around. I have tried everything that has been recommended from food diaries, supplements, probiotics, laxative (all different types) gluten free diet

Test Results after discussion on here
Hi folks, hot of the press so to speak and on the attached screenshot. The doctor's comments are below this message. They are not what I was expecting, especially as I inject B12 1mg only once a month, but data analysis works more than one way and unless I'm reading it wrongly, I can cancel out any sort

B12 and brain fog?
I don't post very often as it has seemed up until now that my 1mg, self-administered monthly B12 injection seems to have been enough. My recent health has though taken a nosedive with ridiculous weight gain and increasing brain fog: I'm nearly 20 stone (127kg or 280lbs) now having been a manageable

Brain fog, other symptoms, dosage, B12 deficiency and testing?
I don't post very often as having had the radioiodine treatment for hyperthyroidism, I thought that my position was now permanent and I only needed the annual thyroid function tests my doctor (new this year) takes every year. I may still do. My recent health has though taken a nosedive with ridiculous

Medical Issues & RLS/PLMD
Hi all. I have recently been diagnosed with Celiac Disease (CD) and now wonder how much of my RLS/PLMD could be the result of an iron and/or other nutritional deficiency. My ferritin level is 160 so, a gluten-free diet may not help me re: RLS but, thought others should know that there is an established

How do you manage(enjoy) your food when you have Hashimoto’s/ hypothyroidism?

Memory worsening
I have recently increased my dose from 25/50 alternate days to 50 every day. My memory is worsening. I completely forgot my husband’s birthday today although I know I remembered it a few days back. I was writing my Dads birthday card last week and wrote To and then couldn’t remember what I was doing.
