Vitamin results are in, advice please.
I finally managed to get a Ferritin test from GP after latest Medichecks showed it had gone down despite taking 20mg of Solgar Gentle Iron. Well, the NHS one shows it’s gone up to 31 from 24 which is amazing really as I haven’t been taking any iron for two weeks!!! So I’m getting no help from them.

Day 58 TTFD.
*** I ended up with High Blood Pressure taking TTFD. I no longer take TTFD. Based on my experience, I would not recommend TTFD. *** I sent an email: Dr. Elliot Overton, I have Parkinson’s. I have been taking TTFD. I took 50mg for 10days and completely eliminated my PD symptoms, but I was getting very

Supplements and levothyroxine
Hi, After recent bloods my T4 was increased from 112.5mcg to 150mcg T4. I've not included results as I've done that before and it's not what I'd like help on. My next blood tests are on 25th July (8 weeks after increase). It has been recommended on this site that I also supplement Vit D3 as it was

Recalls, Market Withdrawals, and Safety Alerts
I was searching for something else entirely when I found a recall for Magnesium Citrate I had bought last week and never used THANK GOODNESS ! The thing is, I looked in 3 stores (pharmaceutical areas) before I found this one, last bottle at a local Kroger. Fortunately, I did not open the bottle

B12 deficiency post cholecystectomy
I’m curious if there is any link to cholecystectomies and B12 deficiency. I had my gallbladder out and then 8 years later, b12 deficient. Have any of you had your gallbladder out and then had B12 deficiency occur afterwards?

Worth a Spit ? Why saliva could hold the answer
Trying to work out how B12 makes the journey: - Salivary glands produce Haptocorrin (HC), which binds to the B12 in food (the extrinsic factor) - HC/ B12 mix then travels on via oesophagus into the stomach - HC/B12 mix can survive the low PH of stomach - Parietal cells produce hydrochloric

I’m pretty new to this group but am very grateful to be part of this forum. I was diagnosed with osteoporosis in 2017 and started sodium risedronate around 2018. I took it until about 4 months ago when my Endocrinologist took me off to put me on Prolia, which she assured me had no contraindications

Update on magnesium supplement for missed beats.
I had Covid early in 2020 and immediately noticed missed heartbeats at a fairly constant rate. Quite a common after effect I've been told. Cardiology put me on a Holter and told me I had sinus node disease and second degree heart block and inserted a pacemaker to stop bpm going too low whilst asleep

Thank you
Hello, I am 52 years old and was diagnosed with ADHD a couple of months ago by my primary doctor. She treated me for anxiety and depression for years with medications but had no luck. This led to the ADHD diagnosis. I am now waiting to see a physiatrist to confirm it after weeks of trying to find

I had a question for everyone…. My RLS has the restlessness feeling but it also has the electric jolt feeling which is worse and it’s def more aggravating than the urge to move itself as anyone who I have spoke to knows I am a difficult case and my doctor and I are trying everything. I have recently

Magnesium threonate
Following on from my magnesium/arsenic query, I've been advised to take magnesium threonate for tinnitus. Does anyone else take this supplement and can they recommend a brand? Thank you!

Cramps in legs.
2 days ago I got pain in the back of my neck. Hubby said I must have been in a draught. That night I got terrible cramps in both my legs. They lasted about an hour. I used Magnesium oil and it helped. Had them again last night . Anyone else suffer with cramps. I drink plenty water and go for my walks

Test Results show over-replacement but
Dear All, I went to the Specialist and he agreed to prescribe T3 until my next review in September. He was quite pleasant and understood some of my points. Unfortunately not all points but nevertheless I believe it was a fruitful appointment. I got the result of the blood test done on the day. Mind due

Mind-Map of Lone AF, Thyroid, Gilbert's and Autism
I'm new to forums about the above. So, forgive me if I'm going over old ground. My medical history is really only remarkable for mild Gilbert's Syndrome (hyperbilirubinaemia) and mercury fillings (in common with much of the UK of my generation!). However, 13 years ago I was diagnosed with lone paroxysmal

Don't trust everything you read on the internet
Just sharing the NHS website on B12 and folate deficiency anaemia, which reads as per the below. What this says to me is that there is a distinct difference between what actually happens in the real world vs. what we read about on the old internet. It is important to remember that not every article

Hashimotos fatigue
I was given Novothyral 2 years ago by a FM doc but recent tests showed antibodies so saw an endocrinologist. She diagnosed hashimotos but said the Novothyral dose isn’t right. I started taking levothyroxine straight away about 2 weeks ago but I’m still waiting for my order of T3 to come through, since
