Prostrate Cancer treatment ADT
HiI am being treated for PC. After diagnose I was put on ADT treatment. This stops testosterone production. Had a bone scan and found I have osteopenia. I am taking a calcium citrate with vitamin D. Also once per week Alendronate 70mg. Has anyone else been in the same boat? Thanks

Information about frequency of injection
Hi I posted about a sudden deterioration in my health after 4 years of successful self-injection eod, daily or twice a week (depending on how I was doing). My last post questioned whether it was due to a bad batch of B12 depot - unfortunately, using newly ordered B12 doesn't seem to be making an improvement

I’m currently on 125mcg of levothyroxine. Overall I’m feeling much better with most bothersome results now being constipation and intense itching which comes and goes. My doctors seem very reluctant to increase my levo and I’ve had to push for each increase so far. These are my recent results.

Do I Poke The Bear?
I had my B12 jab last week, I get these every 2 months and am grateful to have them. I've suffered B12 issues since childhood, have dim memories of blood tests and B12 jabs back in the day. I changed surgeries in the early 90's due to moving and have been with this practice ever since. So I'm not sure

Exhausted still after B12 injection.
I was diagnosed a year ago with pernicious anemia. I find that literally half an hour after my injection I'm back to being exhausted again. I do also have RA so do get a lot of tiredness from that and the bucket load of medication I take. I did mention it to the nurse when I had my last injection

5 mg Folic Acid supplement during early pregnancy
Hi dear ivf warriors, I have been taking 5 my folic acid a day months prior to my last cycle. I am now pregnant (still early days) and continue taking 5 mg in addition to multi vitamins. NHS do not advise 5 mg unless you know of specific risks / predispositions. I also read that there were some inconclusive

Update with Vit B12 & Folate results
Hi, I posted a little while ago with recent Thyroid results. SlowDragonsuggested I come back with some other results once I had them. I'm not diagnosed with a Thyroid issue as of yet. These results are following an appointment with an NHS Endocrinologist. I didn't think about him taking bloods at

testing hit folate and vitamin b12
My hospital lab started to give me results for folate and b12 combined. Is it standard ? Any suggestions would be very welcome.

Post Covid B12 and Vitamin D crash
Hi,I have had multiple health problems since my first bout of Covid in 2022, and blood panels revealed low B12, D and very low ferritin (11). I started having B12 injections and got my ferritin to 159 and my folate up to 45 from 5. I was feeling healthy and many of my symptoms had stopped. I had been

Does anyone know anything about low SigA levels and links with b12 deficiency please?
Hi…I’ve recently read an article, but can’t find it at mo! that low SigA levels along with high gastrin levels can indicate b12 deficiency. It caught my attention as on 2 previous tests, a stool and a saliva test, the SigA was included and very low both times which says can give rise to infections,allergies

Back to life thanks to this forum! GP Next steps though - further levo increase?
You've been so helpful. Your collective knowledge has led to a diagnosis of (ords) hashimotos, my levo being upped to 75mg and I'm pain free for the first time in 5 YEARS! Thank you. I feel alive again. I armed myself with printed NICE guidelines and facts/ research and GP didn't resist this time and

lapararoscopy
I have a complex cyst probably 7.2-7.4cm and have been told that I will need eventual laparascopy. I am back 23rd of July again for another tvultrasound to check how it is. The gynae/surgeon has done watchful waiting with me since my diagnosis as he knows I am a carer for my mum and I have no one else

Multi vitamins - at last some recognition
Hi everyone, I was pleased to see this today - as so many 'authorities' have repeatedly put down the use of multi vitamins as being a waste of money - here is a quite extensive study showing the opposite. I used to see a very highly acclaimed consultant who said exactly the same to me and would test
