A change for a Friday...girls on a walk...
Hi there. Walking is ongoing as I continue building back to full strength again. Hoping every one is managing to get some walks in too! Today, I went down to spend the day with Small runner in training, Mama and Alice the dog. Poor Dada was in his study working! Friday is a day when Small one arrives

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
