Folate Deficiency
Hi Everyone I've just joined, so glad I found this group, wish I'd found it years ago. Great to find a place where everyone can be so open. I have a question and would be so grateful if anyone has experienced this could give any insight, I have a folate deficiency at the moment and have been prescribed

Suspected fibromyalgia with severe endometriosis
Hi all, hope you’ve had a good day (sending extra love if not!) I’ve been suffering with terrible joint pains & stiffness, raised glands, along with chronic fatigue that isn’t helped even if I do manage to get a decent night’s sleep. Blood tests show slight anaemia & slightly low vitamin D, even though

Seeking more vitamin advice please
After all the great advice after my first post 6 months ago I am looking for confirmation of next steps regarding vitamins. 1) Vitamin D: prior to previous post, I was taking Vitabiotics D3 (1000 IU) daily. My Blue Horizon result last July was 69 nmol/L (adequate!). I started the BetterYou D+K2 spray

Exhaustion
Is exhaustion just something we have to put up with if you have PA? I’m SI Hydroxocobalamin twice a week with folate supplements , in between getting it from my GP every 2 months. I’m taking a B complex with 5 mg of B6. Potassium is fine, ferritin on the up 65 but I’m still taking gentle iron supplements

Requesting help with vitamin results - thyroid looks OK
Hi all, After a few years of not having much luck getting my GP to do blood tests, they really took the biscuit a few months ago of only testing TSH and free T4 and not testing T3, even Total T3 at all. When I asked about this, the practice said they are not doing blood tests anymore and were outsourcing

Loosing the will to live
I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's Disease in 1996. Luckily my GP screened for the antibodies as my T4 was borderline; purely because his daughter had been diagnosed with it. At the time I was passing out all the time, I had developed psoriasis, I had brain fog, depression and a host of other symptoms

Solutions for Severe Anemia
Hubby thought he was finally seeing light at the end of the tunnel, but unfortunately had a duodenal bleed in December. Ever since he’s been severely anemic. If he exerts himself in any way he becomes dizzy, nauseous and needs to have a nap for an hour or so. He feels tired all the time. It’s been three

Low Iron and Vitamin D
My daughter has just received her ferritin results back from her GP. She hasn’t been issued with any iron tablets the graph shows she’s within the normal range but it is down at the bottom end when it needs to be at an optimal level, so I've read, My question is, can anyone recommend a good Iron vitamin
