high active B12
Hi, This is an extension from my previous post which has all the history on it. I think I’m going to email my haematologist for a referral to gastro re my 2 inflammation markers and abdominal issues maybe causing absorption issues. Could this be a thing with such high levels of active B12, as I can

Test Results interpretation
HNY everyone! I got my test results back from the GP today. She did a full MOT (although didn’t include vit d or ferritin) but I’m not sure what they mean or if they are optimal. My vit b12 is 502 (197-771) Serum folate is 8th/L (3.0-26.8) My thyroid results are meaningless as I had taken my meds

I am on a short course of Doxycycline for a skin infection. Should I not take my MXT during this time? I take 20mgm MXT once a week orally and the usual Folic acid daily except for the MXT day. The course is about one week

Doctors visit post blood tests
Hi. I have just been to the doctor's to discuss the blood results I recently posted on here. I'm getting celiac test done and he has put me on vitamin D. He said to take a multivitamin to improve my folate level. He thinks my symptoms are down to taking too much levothyroxine, he said I should reduce

Supplement Help Please
Hello, First time writing and being on the forum so I apologise if this question has asked before. I have been diagnosed with PA for just over a year and a half and have 3 monthly B12 injections. Around the second month after the B12 injection I get a massive drop off. I get a metallic taste in my mouth

Levothyroxine and B12 possible interactions
I have been taking Levothyroxine for many years and believe that the symptoms I experience for both too much or too little Levothyroxine are identical. When I experience an increased pulse rate that can be because of either too much of too little Levothyroxine but keeping my dose fixed this problem is

Wondering if iron dose age should vary depending on weight please?
Hi I usually take Ferrous fumerate to help with iron levels.

Mine came to needing between 20 and 40ish a day. I’ve been & until it arrives

Taking Urso
Good morning, everyone! I have a question about Urso. Is it fine to take your Urso in one dose instead of two? I never forget mornings. I also have no reactions to taking it so far after two and a half months. I also have a question about bone density tests. I have found a former student who

I’ve never posted on here before as I’ve been really lucky with my surgery and treatment of my B12. However, on 05/01/24 I was informed that this would be my last injection, I would need a blood test to confirm if my injections were to be continued. Quite open about the fact that everyone in the surgery

Looking for comments on this opening info sheet.
I am a doctor who got interested in RLS over 6/12 ago when my wife's RLS went crazy when she was trying to use Phenergan (sedating antihistamine) to sleep. After a couple of sleepless night she was a mess and complained "And there is no treatment for restless legs!!". I thought that could not be right
