Are my side effects from adalimumab normal and will they fade?
I’ve recently been put on adalimumab for my RA. The first injection seemed like a wonder drug as I could feel the difference almost immediately and was moving in ways I haven’t for years. The second injection doesn’t seem to have done anything except show me some unfortunate side effects. Racing heart

Levothyroxine sodium pentahydrate tablets - formulation considerations
Levothyroxine is reaching retirement! It has been available for just over sixty-five years. :-) Despite that, we still have to accept formulations which are problematic. This review paper summarises in its abstract two major causes of these problems. It then identifies shortcomings in the United States

Increased tingling and burning feet AFTER B12 injections
Hi all, I’m hoping to gather experiences from the group to see if other people seem to get the same sensations as me after a B12 injection. I seem to get increased sensation of tingling/electric current through my legs and burning soles of feet after B12 injections alongside a gnawing ache in my calves

Can it take up to 3 months to feel benefit of iron infusion?
Hi. After noticing my RLS symptoms were getting worse, I had my ferritin checked and found that it was only 5, so this led to me having an iron infusion 3 weeks ago. I had my ferritin checked again 2 weeks after the infusion, and found out yesterday that my ferritin has now risen to 363. However, this

Eye haemorrhage
My optician has diagnosed a small haemorrhage in my left eye and thinks that this could be due to the prednisalone that I'm taking for PMR. She will be asking the doctor to carry out blood tests. My steroids have just been reduced from 15mg to 12.5 mg. Has anybody had a similar problem with prednisalone

MMA test
Hi does anyone know if you can get the MMA test on the NHS. I have had a telephone consultation with my doctor after I sent in my Medichecks Thyroid and Active B12 results. My Active B12 is 41 range 25.1 - 165 and Viapath recommend to be tested for MMA if level is below 70. I emailed Medichecks to

Advice for when GP won't act?
Hi guys, I've now had a second intrinsic factor antibody test (privately). Both my private tests came out positive for IF, but the middle test I took, which was with the NHS, came out negative. The GP though thinks I have chronic fatigue syndrome as my cells are normal size and B12 blood levels are coming

GP says it’s low B12 Level but not PA
My B12 serum level was 248 which my GP says is at the low end of normal. She ordered one B12 injection a month for 3 months (3 injections total). I have pins and needles pain in my ribs and pelvis and also loose stool but am not fatigued or nausea. I was on Omeprazole for 23 days last month. I asked

Gastritis improvement with injections
I am curious if those with gastritis have found it improved after injections. I had an endoscopy last year, after monthly injections were started, which showed moderate gastritis. This year, the endoscopy showed marked improvement, along with better bowel movements and less intestinal cramping. The

Oxford researchers identify levels of antibody protection required to prevent symptomatic COVID-19.
Researchers from the University of Oxford have today released their findings about the so-called ‘correlates of protection’ against symptomatic COVID-19; potentially a tool to speed up safe development of new vaccines which may assist regulators in assessing the likely potency of any new COVID-19 vaccine

Am I overdoing it on the B12?
I know this question has been asked many times but I am full of doubts. I found out I was b12 deficient last summer, my levels were very low (24 pg/ml) despite taking multivitamins for months. I felt very sick. My main symptoms were extreme fatigue, brain fog, cognitive impairment, eyes twitching and

Jakavi
I started Jakavi treatment some months ago as I was progressing from PV to myelofibrosis. I had immediate relief from itching but it seems to have returned. Enlsrged spleen, haematocrit down, platelets low and white cells not well controlled. What now?

Question about IV iron for anyone who has gotten an infusion.
Hey guys. Just asking this out of curiosity. But has anyone actually had RLS go away or improve after an IV iron infusion? I got one back in October and didn’t notice a perceivable difference. Pretty sure my levels are on the lower end now, so I’m getting an iron panel tomorrow but I just wanted to see

Folic Acid and B12 injections
I have always had low Iron and Folate but until recently my GP has done nothing to correct the levels. It was a diagnosis of Oral Lichen Planus to have my Haematinics checked, I have also been diagnosed with Bile Acid Malapsorption. I was put on B12 injections for life but my folate has now gone down
