How long do I keep supplementing?
I posted this a few days ago and would really appreciate some advice. I'm finally feeling really well, thanks largely to the forum and wonder how long I should continue supplementing. I have been reading Dr Brewers book 'The Essential Guide to Vitamins, Minerals and Supplements' and it looks like I'd

Ferrous Fumarate
I have a feeling these should be kept well away from Calcium in foods. Could someone please let me know if I am correct. I know it has to be taken with Vitamin C and, I think, 4 hours after Levothyroxine. I would be grateful for advice on this.

Ferritin levels and B12 recovery
Will optimum ferritin levels eg 80+ help to speed up the recovery of my red blood cell production? My last ferritin level was 42. I've been prescribed ferrous sulphate to help raise my levels but my understanding is that iron levels raise slowly and gradually even on supplements. I'm struggling with

Fed Up Please Help
Dear All this is my first post and I am all new to this and PA, please be kind. I have been feeling unwell for quite some time but brushed it of as having a busy lifestyle. I have been suffering with extreme tiredness to the extent when at work I just wanted to put my head on my desk and go to sleep.

Newbie needing help please!
Hi I'm not sure if I'm in the right place, but I was recommended this from another site. I've been off work with horrendous fatigue, various body pains and brain fog for the past 4 months, following a chest infection back in April. My GP has done some a couple of blood tests and found a vitamin D deficiency

Well well well
Well well well I went to doctor last night with throat infection and he was looking through my notes as I'd not been to see him before, he casually said why haven't you ordered ferrous sulphate and vit d tablets since March. I said your colleague Dr Patel phoned me at home to say I didn't need them
