Supplements and testing.
Hi, I have been taking Vitamin D and Folic Acid as my last blood test showed they were both very low. I am due to retest and I am not sure, should I stop taking the supplements before I retest or is it okay to carry on taking them. Thank you in advance for any help.

Why cyanocobalamin?
I have just been looking at the documentation (SPC and PIL) for a number of Folic Acid products. It appears they contain the following words – or similar: [i]4.4 Special warnings and precautions for use[/i] [i]Folic acid should not be administered for treatment of pernicious anaemia or undiagnosed

The outcome of my infusion, and a question
On 3 February 23 I had an iron infusion (at a private clinic), and I have finally been able to get a blood test (on the NHS) to see what my serum ferritin and transferrin levels are now. My serum ferritin level has increased from 50.0 to 406.7. My transferrin level is down from 2.26 to 1.74. I was

calm magnesium powder
I love the calm magnesium powder, helps with relaxation & constipation. However, I don’t know its effect on Diabetis type 2 & hemophilia A factor 8 inhibitors. I started giving a small dose to my husband & saw improvement in memory.( he has dementia )Sadly he also has diabetes 2 & hemophilia A. I May

Consistent with b12 absorption problem?
Hi folks This is my b12 journey. For context, I have autoimmune under-active thyroid disease (diagnosed 2017) and eat a diet rich in vitamin b12. In July 2018 I felt unwell with symptoms of b12 deficiency and an active b12 test came back at 34.3. I went to my GP, but my total b12 was just in range

Side effects Pfizer spring booster!
Has anyone experienced stomach issues with this booster? I have had aches and felt tired which I have experienced with past boosters and have now, but I haven’t felt nausea and had trips to the loo before. Thank you!

Low Platelet, WBC, Lymphocyte etc
Good morning, I was wondering whether it is normal for those of us with UAT/Hashimotos to have low counts on these things? Whenever I get a full test done they come back slightly low or borderline. These are the ones I'm generally low or borderline on (since around 2012) : Lymphocyte count - last

T3 much better but feeling worse again!
I'm on a high dose of levo, 200mcg per day (I weigh 80kg right now), and just got test results back that show my T3 levels are much improved. However, of course, my TSH is now below range and my T4 way over. My ferritin, etc, is as bad as it's ever been, despite taking 210mg of ferrous fumarate each

Full blown PV now
I was diagnosed with Jak2+ PV back in January 2020. At that time, I didn't have high RBC, Hemaglobin, or hematocrit. I had high platelets, high WBC, basophilia, and eosinophilia. My hematologist said she was calling it PV rather than ET due to the high counts other than my platelets. She was completely
