How do I know if I have PA?
My issues with B12 only came to light after booking an iron infusion with Dr. Klein earlier this year. He asked me to stop taking any b vits for a month prior to my blood test. After 3 weeks of not taking B12 and other b complex supplements my health rapidly deteriorated. I became weaker by the day

Weight Loss Advice
I know this is a topic that drives us all mad lol but any advice is welcome.I was a long distance runner before I had my 5th child and then 11 months later diagnosed with Hasimotos. I gained 3 stone after the pregnancy before diagnosis. I have lost 2 stone but this last stone does not shift no matter

Dear All, As a community, our journey can be extremely arduous. There is no set pattern to recovery, once we believe that we are on an even keel, something can tip the balance.

B12 5mg, is it worth it?
Hi, I have b12 injections and have been offered ampoules of 1mls at 5mg. Has anyone had any experience with these, does it give you a mega boost so I wouldn't have to have as many 1mg injections? Thanks in advance for any advice

Creating a Framework for Treating Autoimmune Gastritis—The Case for Replacing Lost Acid
A paper from Bruce Wolffenbuttel and colleagues, released last February https://www.mdpi.com/2072-6643/16/5/662 Conclusion: [i]"Autoimmune gastritis is not a gastritis that needs acid suppression; rather, it may benefit from acid supplementation. The loss of stomach acid in AIG precedes nutrient deficiencies

B12 Toxicity
Our Doctor recently did a B12 and Ferritin blood test and is now demanding that we stop self injecting with immediate effect to prevent B12 toxicity….. Has anyone ever heard of this and if not, how do we deal with this? My husband has megaloblastic anaeamia and stopping the injections could have fatal

medichecks results different from GP
I did a home test back in. March in order to get some information other than the GP test who wanted to reduce my Levo and put me on Statins. I take 100mcg daily and feel well on this dosage, when I was on 75mcg, I felt lethargic and not myself. The new results are CRP HS. 1.510 mg/L. (Range < 3

Adrenal support - early days of T3
Hi I have recently started on Liothyronine - followed advice to start slowly and all seems to be going well. I am also on very regular B12 injections. I have a question about supporting adrenal glands. I had (may still have…) low morning cortisol, was given a Short Synacthen test which I passed but

b12 advice
Hey, So for ten years or so now I’ve suffered with a “on and off” B12/folate deficiency. I had loading doses and then injections in 2017 and my levels were at the lowest of 198, folate was really low aswell then but then they checked my levels a few months later (1803) and obviously they would be high

An update…..and pins & needles
Hi everyone, For all who know me through my infrequent posts on this site over the years I thought I’d share the news that I have received recently a diagnosis of thyroid cancer. Hopefully a fully treatable kind but not entirely sure at present. As awful as it sounds it is in disguise a relief to have

worse after b12 injection
really confused what and where to go from here… I had a b12 hydroxy shot done 3 days ago and I have had so much brain fog, fatigue and just feel spacey ever since. I also do have currently low ferritin of 20 and my b12 was around 250 prior to injection. I had been told people felt better straight away
