Iron deficiency anemia and increased A1C levels
I get phlebotomies ever couple of weeks, which as expected, has caused me to be
iron
deficient and a bit anemic (HGB 11.1, Ferritin <3 ng/mL,
Iron
29, Transferrin 6%, UIBC 434, and IBC 463). I am also on 2 aspirin/day, some BP meds, and a statin. My A1C is now 6.4.

HbA1c
Has anyone heard of or have knowledge about B12 deficiency, folate/
iron
deficiency affecting Hba1c results and causing raised levels? I was extremely surprised when my Hba1c levels came back high pre diabetic recently.

Should I take Irin supplements?
The results I was the most interested in were the
iron
panel. After Seaside Suzie explained the importance of optimal levels for conversion of t4 to t3 I think I need to be taking a supplement? Could I ask if my results are comprehensive enough to make that decision please?

Questions regarding my B12 case (IF, veganism, oral sublingual, and other blood results)
My
iron
(94, 38-169 range) and ferritin (46, 30-400 range) numbers also decreased a bit (vegan diet may play role). TIBC is 385 (250-450 range) and
iron
saturation is 24, 15-55 range.

Clonidine - success with RLS anyone?
Evening team I have a query. As some of you may remember I was prescribed Buprenorphine two years ago by a neurologist for my restless limbs. I have a feeling I may have asked this question before, maybe not in one of my posts, (can't remember!) Does anyone out there take Clonidine for RLS? if

Vits tested
I’ll ask the GP for some
iron
, I’ve bought a blood test online which is more thorough. Waiting for day 3 of my period as there’s lots of hormones included, just wondered if the b12 or folate are ok?

Sobriety and preparing withdrawal from Pramipexole
I have started taking
iron
with c-vitamines. As I am doing a keto diet I also take electrolytes. I found something called Hyland's Restful legs that gets great comments.

estrogen levels
adrenal glands are great, pituitary is great, full blood count is great all round,
iron
is great, this was the only potentially "low" thing that popped up.

Targeting iron metabolism in immune system cells may offer a new approach for treating systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)
They also found that T-cells from lupus patients have high levels of
iron
, even though the patients are usually anaemic, so it was not clear why the T-cells had elevated
iron
levels and what it meant.

Advice needed please about liquid Levothyroxine side effects
Hello, I wrote a post about a month ago saying my adult son was unable to get liquid levothyroxine as it was out of stock. He was taking the brill Pharma brand and tolerated it really well. The chemist managed to source Teva liquid levothyroxine three weeks after we asked for a repeat prescription

Abnormally high thyroid levels
I take daily 3000iu of Vit D oral spray ( and went on holiday to a Med country in autumn),
iron
regularly (alternate days ), selenium daily and magnesium 3 times a week. I took the test about 9am but had taken Levo about 8 hours previously. My levels have never been this high.

advice on taking thyroxine at night ?
I also take ferrous sulphate for
iron
but been advised to take this separately as it counter acts with the thyroxine.
