Endometriosis?
Hi everyone My journey is quite a lengthy one so I’ll attempt to shorten it by containing the most important info… when I was a teenager I had awfully painful, extremely heavy periods at times they would bring me to tears, this improved after having children but was still far from “normal” whatever

hi I have been desperate for sleep but my RLS has been so bad that I’ve found it impossible I managed to get a GP appointment and told her my story and background and although she was sympathetic said the RLS I’d very difficult to control I told her I had no desire to go back on to a DA and my problems

Can anyone offer some help regarding my Ferritin levels for my RLS please.
Hi! I'm after some support and recommendations please. I started running as my BP has gone into high range. Unfortunately, shortly after, I started to get RLS at night. I don’t know if exercise and RLS are linked, but I need to continue to exercise, to help manage my high BP and Hba1c. Unfortunately

Vitamins
Hi allI posted here last week my vitamin test results from medichecks. My active B12 and folate were low so as per advice on the forum I have held off supplementing until my GP tests for pernicious anaemia. My mother had PA and I certainly do have some symptoms of B12 deficiency. I'm due to get my bloods

Active b12 result
Hello, so gp did my serum b12 which was 206 a few weeks ago and said he wasn't worried. I am worried because I have lots of symptoms and had a b12 deficiency a few years ago so I paid to get an active b12 test done privately (UK). Result is 47 pmol/mol. It says the cut off for a deficiency is 38, so

Another! GP appt. Tips for making the best of it please?
I posted on Monday about my experience of not having my low but still apparently "normal" vit B12 etc levels not taken seriously and ignoring the fact I have a lot of symptoms of pernicious anemia (I've also posted on the PAS forum, but there are far fewer people on there). https://healthunlocked.com

Low iron levels in blood test
Just had a call from A&E who gave me a blood test last night to say my iron levels were low and I should make an appt with my GP as soon as possible. Very perplexing because I take a daily B12 supplement and eat a varied diet which is cooked from scratch. Could this be related to my under active

New to all this, please help with test results
People on the Hypothyroid UK forum have suggested that I join this forum because of some test results that I received yesterday. Long story short, I've finally been diagnosed with hypothyroid, but I'm still having awful problems with my memory, attention, concentration, finding words and ability to

blood results
Hi all, hoping for some help! I was sent for an mri for consistent blood results suggestive of pituitary issues. It revealed an empty sella. I was referred to endo/neurology. They did tests - no problem with my pituitary. I had consistent blood results showing very low TSH with low/mid level t4 and

my story
I live in the US and have had RLS and peripheral neuropathy for a number of years and controlled it using tramadol. My doctor took me off of it because of opiate regulations. After trying and failing at buprenorphine, that doctor decided that since I was 80 years old, had been taking a low dose of Tramadol

Time and again I see recommendations that one should speak to an MPN specialist or someone else on one's care team - and I have a quiet chuckle and just carry on with my life. I am Coeliac around 2010 I was diagnosed with Atrial Fibrillation and Essential Thrombocythemia; since then I have progressed

Iron levels normal
If my iron levels are within range is there any chance taking an iron supplement would be beneficial? I know too much is dangerous. Sorry if answer is obvious, but I'm desperate.

Blood results, what do they mean?
I now have my full blood results:- Ferritin 67 (previous 50) Transferrin saturation index 64% (previous 48%) Se Iron 35umol/l (previous 25) Can someone tell me what these results mean? Can Sue/Joolsg shed any light on these results after 3 months of iron?
