Low iron
Hi all, I was diagnosed with PA about 8 months ago. I'm having injections but feel no better and now have very wiered feeling in my head and regular headaches. My iron level is now very low at 14 although that was over 3 months ago and dr thinks it will be much lower now. He thinks I might have some

Tiromel problems?
Good morning. Has anyone found Tiromel by Abdi Ibrahim to be weak lately? I opened a new batch this week and had to double my dose. I was out shopping and suddenly felt tired. I had felt tired for a few days but had attributed it to the usual suspects, low iron, low cortisol, low vit b12. And sent for

Advice on blood results please
Hi everyone, I would appreciate some input into my latest( and former)results please. I have been up and down with Hashis some time now, it now seems to be getting more erratic. It started Aug, 2016 when I was feeling jittery etc., so went to my gp to ask for blood test. These were all taken early morning

Low heamoglobin/ferritin and giving blood
I recently had a blood test that came back with low heamoglobin and low ferritin levels which would indicate some sort of iron deficiency. With that being said, I've given blood three times (only twice successfully) in a year and my iron levels were checked in the beginning each time and were good enough

Totally weird bloodtest results!! Help please!!
So my blood test results came back, and I have fairly low ferritin (65.8 - ref. Range: 10-291) but high iron (33.8 - ref. Range: 8.8-27). I'm not taking any iron supplements, haven't taken any for years apart from 1 bottle of Floradix last summer. My transferrin was 2.63 (ref. Range: 2.00-3.80). B12

Hi, I'm new here and wondering if someone could please help me. I've just had a blood test done last Friday as I was feeling dizzy and exhausted a lot of the time. I asked for a full blood count and most of the result is showing below range especially the haemoglobin concentration. The doctor has

Urinary metabolomics reveals glycemic and coffee associated signatures of thyroid function in two population-based cohorts
One of the fundamental questions about thyroid hormones is precisely what they do. Even from where we are today, with unbelievably sensitive techniques for investigating biochemical pathways, we end up saying things like "thyroid hormone affects metabolism". That sort of approach, whilst fundamentally

No folic acid without B12 first.
I've read this quite a lot - it is important to not take folic acid before supplementing with B12 if you have a deficiency in both. The reasons given are 1. It can mask the megaloblastic anaemia caused by B12d, delaying a diagnosis of B12 deficiency. and 2. It can exacerbate the neurological damage caused

Hypothyroidism and iron defiancy anaemia

Haven't managed to speak to anyone yet as not due up the Churchill until middle of March. As I've said before

Iron deficiency anemia....85% of us!!!
Hi folks, I finished my FEC on the 30th of April, my Radiation in September and had a total hysterectomy in December. I thought my total fatigue was normal considering. I also had residual damage to my thyroid function from the chemo so it took a bit to titrate my dose of levothyroxine
