Aching legs
I’m new here. In May my skin specialists confirmed SCLE following a biopsy. I am having other tests querying SLE because I have other symptoms. One of them is badly aching legs that feel like they are burning hot and I find it difficult to walk up stairs. I have to hold on and pull myself up .

Blood test changes.
67 years old, 3.5 years on Imbruvica. In remission. Last week's blood test had warning flags all over for first time in two years. About half of them flagged. Had major prostate surgery last month at MD ANDESON. Ones I really noticed were NO MONOCYTES, HIGH ATYPICAL LYMPHS, HIGH BASOS, DOUBLING

Which blood tests to take?
I’m due to see my doctor again in a couple of weeks, and whilst I’m due to do a full thyroid panel, I’m conscious that various advice on here has also advised to test a broader range of things. Off the top of my head, that should include: Ferritin Folate Vitamin D Vitamin B12 I’m currently ting selenium

My HCT was low for me..help.
I have PV. Not taking any meds for it yet. I had a phlebotomy on 8-10. I normally don't get a CBC for 2-3 months after a PB to allow my HCT to get above 42 which is when I get a PB. By on 9-22 I was at the doctor so I got a CBC. It was about 40 days after my phlebotomy. My hemo just emailed that he

Magnesium supplements - what brands to try, what to avoid!

Covid Vax Antibody Response/ Member Survey
The LLS study here suggests 97% of us should get some response from the initial vaccine set. My understanding is your WBC counts, esp Neut and Lyph, are important at the time of vaccine. A while ago Paul123456 posted an antibody survey. Maybe a good time to do it again. -Whether you had Covid before

Blood tests - time taken
How long does it take for basic blood tests to be done in the community and for the results to return to the GP, in your experience, on average? The bloods I had tested were FBC, thyroid panel, iron panel and B12. Mine were done on Friday and I need - pretty urgently - to get the results back. Inside

Fortification of flour is a public health policy known to reduce neural tube defects in babies
Note: As written, no mention of B12. I know I have previously seen the concept of fortifying with folic acid possibly being a problem in those who are B12 deficient being dismissed. [i]Folic acid is to be added to the most commonly consumed flours in the UK to help prevent spinal conditions in babies

Vitamin B1

Blood Test Results - Comments on levels please
Well I got my blood iron levels back today and I need a little help in understanding where they stand. 1. Serum Ferritin is 376ug/l. I believe this is acceptable as it seems the level for RLS should be above 250. 2. Serum Transferrin is 1.79 g/L. The Lab indicated that the normal range was 2-4. 3. Serum
