Blood result and raised MCV
Hi everyone. I had a recent blood test as I've been supplementing with gentle iron, general A-Z vits and B12 since the spring. I particularly wanted to check up on my iron/ferritin status. I've never had a positive diagnosis of PA, or even of B12 deficiency as my levels have always been 'in range'.

one last question ( hopefully)
I have finally managed to get an appointment with my GP where I hope to convince him to give me B12 injections more often that once every 8 weeks and I never had a loading doses so am hoping for that too. I hope I can get him to do some tests, like size shape and number of red blood cells, intrinsic

Does anybody know about Baclofen for RLS ?
I have been quiet for a few week's when my Ferritin levels were at 14 so a new Dr. put me on to Iron Sulphate and the level went up to 134 so they are wanting me to keep taking the Iron. I take a pill every other day with orange juice, thought it was helping my leg's and arm's but no ! After 3 night's

Iron test results - 6 weeks pregnant
Hello again My last iron test results suggested I was oversupplementing, so I reduced it to 1 Thorne Iron, alternate days. I have since found out I'm pregnant, but not sure that it makes any difference to what I'm doing...guess it will just need monitoring as we go, as iron is one of the things that

Augmentation set in and I saw his forum went to my doctor who has changed my medication to Pregabalin. Currently on 50mg per day as I weaned off Ropinirole (completely weaned off for 3 nights

Iron and sleep
Moringa is loaded with iron and many healthy vitamins and minerals, no other plant in the world gives more nutrients than moringa, organic black strap molasses is loaded with iron vitamin B and minerals, 5htp is one of my favourite products followed by Valerian and kava, take all things in moderation

Can't sleep
I am having a tough night. First time in awhile that I've even needed to post. I want to vent, but I also want to end that vent with self praise to hopefully stop this brain cycle tonight. Vent: Finances are a struggle and I have been clinging to escapism quite a bit. I am avoiding a lot of responsibilities

still confused about my iron results
I’ve now redone my iron panel with medichecks and have similar results to last time. I can’t work out why my ferritin continues to drop. And what I can do about it as I know I need higher ferritin levels for optimum thyroid hormone function. …………………………… Ferritin……….Iron……….. Trans. Sat………..TIBC……….

magnesium
Can anyone advise when is the best time to take magnesium? I currently take Ferrous Fumarate in the morning on an empty stomach with a glass of orange juice. With breakfast I take 75 mg Sertraline plus Vitamin B complex and Vitamin D. At lunchtime I take Thyroxine as it has to be taken 4 hours apart

iron test results - advice on supplements
My iron panel results are just in. Everything is in range though my ferritin just makes it and is very low. I eat an iron rich diet and have been for several months, even before the extra focus it was pretty good. I’m also gluten free. I’d like to raise ferritin and be at optimal levels before exploring
