Advice on latest test results
Hi, I got diagnosed with underactive thyroid in September 2023. I was put on 50g of Levothyroxine and iron tablets as I had low ferritin and anemic. My latest results show I'm no longer anemic but my ferritin is still relativity low despite having been on iron tablets for 2 months. Dr seems to be

Calquence and decreased hemoglobin
Hi Everyone! I have been on Calquence for just about a month and had my first labs yesterday. Neuts were normal. Platelets were steady at 120. My absolute WBC was 106,000 from 43,000, but that was to be expected. However, my hemoglobin was 10.3 from 11.2. I know it's just a slight decrease, but

Conjecture
I use conjecture as part of my creative process. Thing is I do not pretend it is anything but conjecture. Using those who share their experience on this forum it seems to me that of the three forms readily commercially available Methylcobalamin has the most profound effect. As a person who is not

symptoms with treated PA
Hello forum Autoimmune Metaplastic Atrophic Gastritis (AMAG) results in the loss of parietal cells which causes a loss of production of stomach acid and intrinsic factor (IF). The loss of IF results in low B12. My general query is; are there consequences and symptoms connected to a lack of stomach

Anaemia or CLL? Time for re-referral?
I am of the opinion that she should be referred back to the Haematologist rather than aiming to correct the Haemoglobin level by treating for
Anaemia
. Also, could this be a case of Autoimmune

as discussed in 'Livingwith67’s post a couple of months ago?

iron results
I’d appreciate some feedback on my iron panel results please? I know my ferritin is too low, even if it’s above the bottom of the range. I upped how much black pudding, pate, or liver I’m eating at 5 out of 7 days a week for over a couple of months. Is my iron too decent enough to be able to take

I am very fortunate that I can pop down to P.A. Society Head Quarters to lend a hand. I did this morning. There are 4 volunteers helping the small amount of staff run the organisation . The person there today was inundated when I rocked up. As they are everyday. We could talk for weeks but I said, ‘No

Supplements
Hi lovely people. Just a question. In the past, I have had v low iron, folate rock bottom and prob other vitamins low that I never had checked. I have worked a lot on my micro biome/gut this past year plus supplementing continuously. I cut out gluten as leaky gut was diagnosed through a test.

RE iron tablet recommendations
Hi again I have to get my iron levels up.. I have one perscription from my GP for 305 mg Caps Ferrous fumurate (but when I go to the pharmacies here they only have Galfer which has sooo many horrible ingredients, some of which have been banned in Australia, some euro countries)... And my private Endo

Ups and downs update
I finally received a phone call from my GP who was incredibly nice and friendly. But…… she wasn’t prepared to act on the advice I quoted from both NHS and NICE that as I was still suffering from pins and needles I needed every other day B12 injections until there was no further improvement. After

Visit to Haematology Dept.
This morning I had a appointment to see the consultant haematologist at Scarborough Hospital, the first I have seen for about 3 years, the was because my total white blood count & Lymphocyte count had shot up from my April blood test, she examined me and took more blood, the results were a lot better

New papers on PA
There are often new interesting papers on pernicious anemia. I will add them to this thread to keep them all in one place. I'll try to the pick the ones I think are most novel & relevant, but plenty are published every month. To see more, check Google Scholar https://scholar.google.com/scholar?start=

Some results, at last
I had some blood sent for Next Generation Sequencing back in March, I’ve been waiting for the results. Consultant phoned this afternoon, he says I am now post ET MF or words to that effect! My platelets are currently 559, I’m on one capsule of Anagrelide twice a day. I was extremely anaemic and after
