new member advice on gp appts
She’s anemic and on
iron
tablets. Has had scan and waiting for results. My question is how do we proceed at Drs instead of being told to just go on the pill. She really doesn’t want to do this as it makes her depressed. Can we ask for gynaecology referral? Dr is ringing her this week. Thank you

Then my B12 and
Iron
levels got very low and I just didn't have the energy to complete the 30 days. I was wondering if anyone else has tried any that they could recommend or even any good videos on YouTube The one I used was called Yoga-Go. Thanks

What’s the best type of
iron
tablet to avoid constipation? I’m so confused as to my best approach but I’ve little hope of a GP appt for weeks. Help anyone greatly appreciated.

Latest blood tests
I’m guessing by looking at the above I may need to supplement
iron
and folate as they are normal range but low? Do you think that should likely be my next steps?

Advice please on blood results especially possible iron issues.
Wondering about possible b12 deficiency and
iron
issues. I know
iron
is complicated and I can’t really understand the results.

Grandfather FIT test result of 200...
In a blood test about 3 months ago, the GP noticed his
iron
was low. They re tested it again and it was falling dramatically. He feels tired and breathless also. He did a FIT stool test and it came back as 200. This is cancer isn't it ? I am so scared for him.

Malabsorption of drugs?
My stomach pH level was recently 8.1, so very low stomach acid, which is why I am not absorbing/processing B12,
iron
and folate. I also did a test which showed I have very low diamine oxidase in my gut so have histamine intolerance. My question is regarding my medication.

Dreadful nights
I’ve done the
iron
infusion about a year ago without improvement . If there’s any suggestions I’d really welcome them. I’m at my wits end. thanks for reading this and giving it some thought.

Massachusetts Opioid Register Year 4 results
For those who have augmented on dopamine agonists and who have not responded to
iron
infusions or gabapentinoids, this study can help to persuade your doctor that opioids can be used safely to treat Refractory RLS. Interestingly 6.6% of the original 500 participants have switched to Buprenorphine.

I am not sure yet if I have pernicious anaemia, or whether it is a gut dysbiosis problem as I do not appear to be absorbing nutrients well, including B12,
iron
, folate, and possibly others. And I also have low diamine oxidase which is used to control histamine.

This week has been rough! Introducing...
Pictured above at my
iron
infusion last week. I did better with the
iron
infusion than with my first one, which is to say I didn't look 'like death pulled through a keyhole' - not my description 🤣🤣😅 That is not to say it was great, it still made the week hard to get through.

An Enlightening Endocrine Adventure
Good for me, but I'm anemic and do not have
iron
deficiency. The full
iron
panel came out middle of range in all the measures. The endocrinologist is passing me off to a hematologist, as though there's nothing else endocrine that could be producing the undesired effects.

Help interpreting iron panel
I posted my latest blood results recently & it was suggested by a forum member that prior to trying T3 I obtain a full
iron
panel. Results are posted here. Ferritin seems fine but
iron
& transferrin saturation are low.

Wonder if I can ask advice as to whether some of these results from 19yrs ago link to b12 defic. not Iong after ME diagnosis please?
Can see MCH littke overange &
iron
stores severely under! But I'm wondering if the liver results or low potassium have any links to b12 issues please or whether they weren't enough out of range to be a problem anyway. I vaguely remem Dr telling me it was good to have high globulin?

Blood work
Hey I've been diagnosed with hypothyroidism for just over a year now, but recent bloods have been taken for blood count and
iron
etc my haemoglobin is 122 ( 122-165 ) Ferritin 18 (13-250 ) B12 - 437 ( 197-771 ) Folate 4.7 ( 3.9-26.8 ) although under blood work it says folate comment: folate maybe falsly

Is it Fibromyalgia?
I had a blood test to check for RA and general health and was all clear apart from low
iron
. The doctor has put me on
iron
pills to see if that’s causing the pain. I’m so confused.
