how do you get PA
hi everyone This may sound like a stupid question but I was wondering what makes you get pernicious anemia? Also is anyone experiencing fatigue whilst still taking the injection, I’ve got to wait another 4 weeks before my next one and I feel so tired

B-12 is Low (398), Folate is High, HCY is 55.6, uMMA is 1.7 , vitamin D and C and Magnesium are Low, all B vitamins are low.
Why is the GP not taking my labs seriously, I've been taking methylcobalamin tablets for a year and just began 5-MTHF because of Folate Deficiency found in my DNA, GP declined to do a MMA Blood serum test, I have been allergic to milk and beef since birth, peanuts followed with life threatening allergies

Examining the Diagnosis and Treatment Experiences of People Living With Autoimmune Gastritis and Pernicious Anemia
Have posted this over on the Pernicious Anaemia Society forum. However, it obviously is of significance to many here and the "patient forums" bit might be of general, widespread interest. I'm not re-posting here so that any comments can (hopefully) stay together on my PAS forum post (or, if anyone

Test results - could someone help please?
Hi! My thyroid is well replaced, but I have been feeling so tired and achy, so I asked my GP to test vitamins. She said all is well. I'm gutted because I feel TERRIBLE. What do you think to these results? Serum Ferritin: 29 (r 20-204) Serum Iron Level: 11.7 (r4.4-27.9) Serum Transferrin: 2.63 (r

Deep Brain Stimulation
Study from China on Parkinson's patients with RLS showed Deep Brain Stimulation reduced RLS & helped sleep.I certainly wouldn't consider it. Seems too extreme but if the Parkinson's patients are having the treatment to help tremor, it would be sensible to see if stimulation in another area relieves RLS

can you have normal iron cells and not megablastic and still have pernicious anemia ?
I am curious to know if megablastic anemia whereby the bloodcells are larger in shape has to be present in PA patient. And my second question would be, wouldn’t one know at birth of the shape of their bloodcells were bigger than usual of different enough to suspect PA? Excuse my ignorance but I’m trying

Urine Calcium Test tips?
As my GP has me down as a hypochondriac malingerer I need some evidence to force testing of calcium properly. I can’t afford a £150 6 hour round trip London clinic test so some internet research led me to a £25 set of 10 dipsticks. I’m ready for the ‘waste of time’ responses and see an endo responses

Diagnosed with b12 deficiency not pernicious anemia so far.
Wondering if anyone suspects covid vaccine and b12 deficiency. I have tinnitus b12. speech impairment headaches last about 2 minutes also transulent zig zags over my eyes again lasts 2 minutes. Taking b12 injections monthly. Is this enough given my symptoms. Would like to hear if others have my symptoms

Slow progress getting ferritin up... any advice?
Previously: https://healthunlocked.com/rlsuk/posts/148663707/rls-differential-diagnosis Have taken iron for the last three months - 75mg iron (as bisglycinate) every evening with 500mg Vitamin C. Ferritin levels have gone from 25 to 57 to 81µg/L, so they're definitely getting there slowly. I believe

Could ET mask a diagnosis of Vitamin B12 deficiency/Pernicious anaemia?
I have an ET JAK2 mutation diagnosis (on aspirin) and have some neurological type symptoms that are similar to those associated with a Vit B12 deficiency. Athough I'm now taking a B12 supplement, I was wanting to see if I could get a B12 injection in case my issue related to an inability to absorb B12

High Neutrophils
I was diagnosed with PA 3 years ago. It runs in my family. I took loading does of methylcobalamin then went to once a month. No doctor ever told me to take folate or adenosyl. I recently learned that folate is a vital co-factor. Started 5 mg folate daily, loading doses of cyanocobalamin daily

Hyperparathyroidism
Hi there! I have been diagnosed as having possible primary hyperparathyroidism. I am a shocked that there is not a group for this disease. Can anyone help with this? So many people think I have something wrong with my thyroid when I say I have it, when in fact it is to do with the parathyroid glands

Am Iwell?
I have my bi-monthly consultant review next week, which always starts with the question, well how are you? My usual reaction, is that perhaps you should tell me! I have just got the results (After 1 hour) of my latest blood test but I'm not sure which questions to ask. I started treatment with 6xRituximab
