Blood test results for possible adrenal problems and chronic insomnia
Are my
iron
levels ok or should I be doing something to help these please? I eat red meat 3 times a week and liver pate regularly. I see the endo tomorrow, which will no doubt be a complete waste of time like last time, but any insight would be most appreciated. Thank you.

doc wants to lower my thyroxine
Also
iron
is low and I’ve to take a pill for that. I occasionally get a little anxious (nothing major and she is now saying it’s the thyroxine). Feel scared to lower as I’m most definitely not feeling hyper. TSH 0.05 which does sound low and free T4 20. Any advice? Update with blood results :

When do I increase my meds?
All my other nutrients - D, B12, folate, ferritin,
iron
, etc. are in the ideal ranges - what's recommended here. CRP is healthy too, I track everything regularly. I eat lots of carbs, calories, nutrition is healthy.

help!!! Kind of in limbo with a diagnosis!
I am also following a vit D protocol and taking
iron
tablets. I have reduced my injections to once weekly until I get my
iron
levels up. So my questions are- who do I believe Dr Klein or the neurologist?

Solutions for Severe Anemia
All of his LFTs have been normal for two years, but his
iron
levels continue to drop. He’s back on 150mg of
iron
again, after a three month break. Just wondering if anyone else out there has experienced
iron
deficiency issues.

Blood test follow up
Still waiting on results for B12,
iron
, folate. A year ago vit D levels and calcium were good, calcium ok now. Plan to retest for Vit D, date booked 21/4, as a bonus will get CRP/ESR done at the same time. Only symptoms are extreme fatigue.

Any suggestions for headache?
My RBC/hemoglobin counts have all been low normal since the chemo, WBC count normal, so I recently added Hema-Plex with
iron
as a supplement. Your thoughts appreciated.

Iron and B12 deficiency
Doctors only look at the serum
iron
(similar to how they only use serum b12 in most cases to assess deficiency) in giving a diagnosis of
iron
deficeincy anaemia.

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.

Pramipexole / Pregabalin
I do all the suggested Magnesium /
Iron
etc.... I am at my wits end. I have spent ages reducing the Pramipexole, but at this stage am wondering if that is my only option?

Returning to work with exhaustion
I've started taking vitamins containing B12, and I also take
iron
tablets. I'm just so anxious and worried about how I'm going to manage 12 hour shifts at work. Especially as I work full time so do 33/44 a week. I've voiced my concerns to work, my partner & a couple of friends.
