blood test-nutrients advice
Hi everyone! First of all, I have to say thank you. This is my first time posting, but I've been lurking around here for a while now and I have already learnt so much from this forum! I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism in Nov 2021 and put on 25mcg levothyroxine. It has been a slow battle to get doctors

Surgeon in Liverpool as requested thyroid bloods and thyroid antibodies 🤗
Hi everyone ❤️ Just posting this, as some members who have been following my struggle with thyroid medication these past 4 years, I decided to discontinue the T4 teva, the silly endo put me back on after taking me off the t3 which was not working due to gastric issues, forgetting also that teva t4 did

how quickly did you regress after B12 loading?
I finished my initial B12 loading almost exactly one month ago and initially felt enormously better. However, during the last week I have started to feel like I did before; irritable, weepy, fatigued, constipated and so on. I really can’t believe I need monthly injections so am thinking I am imagining

Does anyone else experience this? pain of the deltoid and trapezius muscles, possibly due to IM b12 both by PCP (monthly) and SI (EOD)
hi there I’m trying to figure out if the IM b12 injections are starting to cause this pain I feel on both sides of my body … areas as specified above. I also SI in my leg muscle. I have a system to work around the four areas of my body. I have autoimmune PA so I need to figure this out. Maybe I

Is it needed and safe for my mom to supplement with folate or B12?
Hi all! I haven't posted before but I've been reading for a few months and find everything really helpful. My mom has had both chemotherapy and radiation this last year, and now has many overlapping symptoms with b12 and folate deficiencies (fatigue, mild neuropathy for years, mild memory loss/confusion

Benfotiamine B1 5 Day Trial
I decided to do a trial of Berfotiamine after reading randomized trials for peripheral neuropathy in diabetics. Yes there is work with efficacy done, just not with B12 deficiency. 1mg EOD is good enough treatment and the maximum ever needed. I no longer experience peripheral neuropathy due to my supplementation

Misdiagnosis? Fibromyalgia or PA?
I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia about 19 years ago, but I wonder whether it was a misdiagnosis. I am still waiting for a PA diagnosis, but have been experiencing many of the symptoms of PA for months. Many of the tests I have done have shown low B12, low folate, low ferritin, all within range but low

Help with results appreciated
Hi everyone, It's been a while since I had full TFTs etc so I was surprised to see some of the results, especially compared to last time (2020). The TSH is lower than in 2020 (when it was 3.7), the Free T4 is slightly higher (16.2 in 2020), but the Free T3 is lower than it was (5.24). My B12 results

Ibrance and supplements
I belong to those who are very careful in taking food supplements. My oncologist recommended not to take calcium and vitamin D because I have a high level of calcium in my blood. I mainly use vitamin C, and I try to compensate everything else from food. I am 69 years old and use Ibrance 100 + fulvestrant

More B12 when ill ?
Hi everyone. Strange question. I’m injecting weekly. But just caught the kids flu. Is the advice to inject more frequently when unwell ?

Inspired by a post by Wwwdot "One Year Later" I decided to walk the same 5K route that I had walked 6 months ago. I 'knew' my self treatment was successful. I wanted a definitive marker and was willing to face that there was no improvement in my ability to walk the same 5K. A small leap of faith.

Another cause of Pernicious Anaemia?
We know that certain gastric operations cause Pernicious Anaemia and therefore lifelong b12 injections are required . But what I’ve never seen mentioned is the possibility of radiotherapy cancer treatment in the region of the stomach that contains the parietal cells , causing Pernicious Anaemia . Surely

B12 - shots v pills
Hi Please could someone confirm the benefits of a B12 injection v taking a supplement? Are we just talking about larger doses and / or ability to avoid the stomach and increase absorption? Is availability of B12 injection really restricted on the NHS? If I decide to go down the chemist route, do
