Low stomach acid - home test reliable?
I have well-managed (at the moment it seems) hashi, coeliac disease and bile acid
malabsorption
, but still have occasional bad stomach days, though things hugely better than they were. I just wondered if this might be some miracle answer to the dodgy days (call me an optimist).

Colitis, Terminal iletis or Crohns?
The consultant mentioned that it could be Bile Acid
Malabsorption
or bowel disease. I was then referred to Gastroenterology but because my symptoms were getting worse I rung them up and was told that because of Covid it would be a year before I was seen!

Use of thyroid hormones in hypothyroid and euthyroid patients: a THESIS* survey of Belgian specialists
This proportion was higher in case of unexplained poor biochemical control of hypothyroidism (13.5%) and in patients with celiac disease or
malabsorption
or interfering drugs (10%). In symptomatic euthyroid patients, 20% of respondents would try combined LT4 + LT3 treatment.

Vitamin D thoughts
“Maintenance therapy of vitamin D equivalent to 800–2000 IU daily (up to a maximum of 4000 IU daily for certain conditions such as
malabsorption
following specialist advice), given either daily or intermittently at a higher equivalent dose.....

Tests for Malabsorption?
What types of
malabsorption
are there? What are the tests needed to diagnose these things? I've been severely fatigued, sick feeling, weak, slow healing wounds, constipated, bloated, brain fog, cognitive issues, etc.

Natural remedies and food supplements
There are specific and more general "
malabsorption
" issues. Some medicines can cause
malabsorption
e.g. antacids and magnesium can inhibit iron absorption.

Is it possible to be deficient in nutrients, even if nutrient levels in your blood are optimal?
B12 1057 (180 - 914) Folate >20 (4.0 - 19.9) Ferritin 150 (13 - 148) Iron (FE) 132.79 (35 - 160) TIBC 337.1 (227 - 427) I seem to have gut issues and low stomach acid which lead to
malabsorption
. I take various supplements.

What is Propranolol prescribed for?
My question is :- is Propranalol ever a treatment for hypo or a
malabsorption
problem? It seems incredible to me that the endo should tell me that I have a problem absorbing liothyronine and then prescribe something to block levo absorption.

When to take Questran or Colestid powder
I am taking one sachet of Questran or Colestid powder (containing colestyramine or colestipol hydrochloride respectively) per day to control suspected bile acid
malabsorption
(I have a cooperative doctor - but I haven't been tested for BAM) and therefore IBS D - and with some success.

Fortifying flour with folic acid.
Being a coeliac I know how the
malabsorption
of nutrients affected my body before diagnosis so hope that gluten free and alternatives flours are covered by this as a pregnant coeliac needs to be well nourished too.

Does anyone know where I can get advice/help/support specific to 'Bile Acid Malabsorption' (aside from Online Sites)?
I am struggling very badly and it is destroying my life alongside with my other health conditions. Am I allowed to ask for personal recommendations? (ignore if not) There are various conflicts with diet regarding diabetes and BAM and my stress is also increased re other conditions. Is there a helpline

Ongoing mucus problem year half later.
Various othet things for
malabsorption
. All to no avail. It would happen every week or 2 weeks. Feel like i need to pass gas and then realise i was wet with clear mucus. No blood. The dr said he did not know what it was. I paid to see a pvt gastro doc.

Yet again, could you have a look at these results?
I also take colesevelam (for Bile Acid
Malabsorption
) which I think can have a detrimental effect on vitamin levels etc. Any other suggestions? - thanks so much to you all, your input is very much appreciated. Tillyxx

How long before an oral B12 tablet affects your Active/Serum B12 level?
I thought we'd already ruled out
malabsorption
issues e.g. PPI use, because coincidentally I'd already been taking prescription oral vitamin B tablets for quite some time, and they clearly weren't helping raise my consistently low Serum B12 result.

Antacid tablets controls Blood sugar - A Study
Since it reduces stomach HCL , you may end up in to
malabsorption
of essential nutrients such as Iron, Zinc and others. Also it is known to disturb our gut bacteria. PPI's are also indicated for H.Pylori infection.

Liquid levothyroxin
As of 2020 it can now be prescribed for people who have a
malabsorption
problem with tablets. Sorry, I can't find the article. I was away last week and didn't make a note of it.
