I've got a Serum Ferritin level of 308ng/ml (my GP was concerned that this was a bit too high), Transferrin Saturation of 31% but a Serum Transferrin level of 2.3g/L. Please can you give me your thoughts on this & am I looking

osteopenia, Hashimotos and sjogrens
hi, my rheumatologist has prescribed Adcal and Alendronic acid. Due to oesphagitis because of Sjögren’s I don’t want to take Alendronic acid. Through research and the help of thyroid UK I now take vitamin D3 MK2 and magnesium. Pains in my chest which used to feel like a heart attack have cleared up since

Is it worth taking magnesium supplements?
On Christmas Day our family gathered at our place and after dinner, as usual, the conversation turned to medical topics. My aunt told us that her neighbor told her that Magnesium may prime the immune system to fight cancer and infections. Dr. Hess and scientists in Switzerland have now discovered that

Hello, my son (5 y/o) was diagnosed with anxiety and dysregulated anger and aggression disorder about 1 year ago (children's mental health professional). He was then diagnosed with ADHD about 3 months ago (physiologist). I now have a clearer understanding that the ladder diagnosis has much to do with

Anaemia test results
Hi all, I recently did the 'Full health screen' from Monitor My Health and all the vitamin results have come back without proper ranges. Only the graphs. Which is irritating. BUT Would you supplement iron with these results? I can't afford to do a full iron panel, and I had assumed this test would

Pregabalin 75mg
Hello everyone, this is my first post here! I have recently started taking 75mg of pregabalin per day to try and reduce my RLS. Lately, it got so bad that I honestly felt I had no other options (tried magnesium and iron supplements with no luck). I feel like I am starting to sleep better, but I'm not

Iron results-any advice?
Hi! V grateful for all the wisdom from this forum. Just did a full iron panel on Medichecks as ferritin has been consistently low, and I've been on and off ferrous fumarate for years. GP only tests ferritin; advice on here seemed to be to get the full picture. Results below... Ferritin much better

omeprazole use with ani inflammatory medication. Magnesium oil spray.
hi, sorry to hear about your struggles. I’ve been on omeprazole for many years to treat acid reflux. If you’re on any anti inflammatory drugs, these can cause stomach acid and that’s probably why you have been given them. For pain I use magnesium oil spray from Holland and Barrett I find it helps a

Low MCHC
Hello all. I have a new aspect of my cbc report that has just become Low. It is MCHC. Normal is 31.0 gm/dL to 36.5. I am now 30.7. I would love comments from any others who have had low MCHC. Did you eventually need oxygen. Did they start treatment due to this? How low can it go before you physically

sciatica and constipation
Lately I have noticed that when I am constipated, my sciatica acts up to where I cannot walk. I have been going to the chiropractor, doing traction, dry needling, reflexology, and massage. I have also been taking the magnesium, (MSM). but when the constipation gets bad, I cannot walk. The MSM keeps

magnesium glycinate and pregnancy
Knowing that lots of you take magnesium glycinate, have any of you taken it safely during pregnancy? Slightly off topic as I’m enquiring for my daughter who does not have a thyroid problem but is in the first trimester of pregnancy and is only sleeping about three hours a night. I suggested magnesium

RLS OR NOT?
Four years ago I fell, hit the back of my head and had internal damage. Arms were numb, loss of memory, and uncontrollable leg movement, mostly early evening. Every thing seems back to normal except for the legs and short memory loss. So for four years I thought I had RLS and so did the doctors. I am

ALC is still going up
Well, today I had another CBC. My ALC continues to go up consistently at each 2 week check and I will be seeing my onco at the beginning of Feb. In addition to the rising alc, test shows a few other little changes that i don't fully understand -- my MCV is now reading high (99.50) and my MCHC is low

How much T3 to increase by?
So I tested too early at 4 weeks after my last dose change and have now left it 11 weeks due to being away for a while. There's been quite a shift in the results, so good job I retested later, although now wishing I had added another 5mcg back at the time. Anyway, on 125mcg Levo taken at night and 10mcgs

Brain iron vs Blood iron
Has anyone read that in RLS patients brain iron can be lower than indicated by blood measurements? I read a study out of Quebec about the gene we carry causing a malformation in the brain that makes it harder to uptake the iron.... So blood levels are not accurate in showing brain anemia. My RLS totally

Vit B and Ferritin levels
So had my FBC, Vit B and "iron" tests yesterday. Turns out they only tested Ferritin for iron, but I've got a full anaemia panel with MMH to complete this morning for a full picture. Now to play the waiting game and see what the GP decides to tell me 🙄 Edit: had a text from my surgery to let me know
