b12 iron relationship?
Hi friends…I was diagnosed with a b12 deficiency in June, which is thankfully improving with injections (I had horrible neuro symptoms). I had my iron tested twice over the summer, both well in the good range (over 100). However, this week I had an iron panel showing my iron is 40 (literally the bottom

RLS vs PLMD
I have severe PLMD. During my last sleep study, at which I only slept 4.5hrs, I had 512 recorded limb movements with 97 resulting in an arousal, giving me a PLM Index score of 108, with anything over 25 considered severe. Thankfully, I only rarely feel a little of the urge to move my legs when awake

Restless Legs Syndrome
I have RLS and take codeine 15mg at night. My ferritin level got too high last year so no longer on iron supplements. Wondering how successful ALA is and if it is what dose and what time to take it. Thanks in advance

Iron deficiency
Hello I’m asking a question with regards to low ferritin levels (17.4). I’m confused whether I should be prescribed folic acid or iron?!

Timing of NDT doses
I will be switching from Levothyroxine to NDT in the next few weeks. How do people manage to eat if we need to split the dose into 2 separate times, and leave 2 hours either side of taking an NDT dose, particularly avoiding magnesium, calcium and iron? So for example 9am breakfast followed by supplements

Supplement schedule query - which should be taken apart from others?
Hello! I've been SI since late 2017, but have changed my co-factor (and other) supplement regime over time - including recently re-introducing folinic acid, having become folate deficient. I've always had low ferritin and months ago started Simply Heme iron supplements, which are supposed to be easier

Results Advice
Hi I’m looking for some advice on my recent bloods please, since my last test I dropped my levo back to 100mg a day and increased my lio by 5mg so I’m a little confused as to why my T3 has dropped🤷♀️the only thing I can think of is that I’ve been using Morningside lio for my 10mg dose in the morning

Update- I no longer take Dipyridamole
I have been meaning to update the group on this. I have stopped taking Dipyridamole for over a month now, closer to two months. I took Dipyridamole for two years. I was nearing the end of my Dipyridamole supply. I was wondering how much it was helping. So I stopped abruptly. Since then I have

RLS - Q&A
Hi RLS survivors I am continuing my Pregabalin journey and wanted to check in with this community to ask out loud various questions circling around my head. The good news is that Pregabalin is making a difference. I get some relief from jumpy legs at night even on a low dose (75mg) What I am experiencing

the curse of lifelong RLS…
I have had RLS for 33 years, I am 63 now with two grown up daughters. My symptoms first presented when I was pregnant, they were annoying but relatively intermittent and manageable - this is how it continued for many years with symptoms presenting during the night. I coped without medication, massaging

Advice needed please about liquid Levothyroxine side effects
Hello, I wrote a post about a month ago saying my adult son was unable to get liquid levothyroxine as it was out of stock. He was taking the brill Pharma brand and tolerated it really well. The chemist managed to source Teva liquid levothyroxine three weeks after we asked for a repeat prescription

Can Low Iron levels be caused by under medication for hypothyroidism
I recently had a blood test for a suspected DVT which turned out to be negative but the hospital rang and left a message on my phone to say that they had found that my iron levels were low and I should see my GP asap which of course I did. The GP thought the levels were due to a internal bleeding and

Ropinirole withdrawal
Hi all, newbie here. I was prescribed Ropinirole about 6 months ago, in May my ankles started to swell and got burning sensation in my feet. Saw GP again and he said it is probably diabetic neuropathy but my sugars are well controlled, anyway he put me on amitriptyline. Either of these meds was making

Hi everyone my husband is now nearly 6 months post surgery and doing well but for the last couple of weeks he’s been experiencing dizziness and a lightheaded feeling usually on getting up from crouching or sitting. His blood pressure has been perfect each time we’ve checked it. We wondered about iron

Mosquito bites and low iron
Hi everyone just a wee update the mosquitoe bites slowly disappearing still got a few scabs. Will find out today if my iron level any better but what I will say is the restless leg syndrome starting to ease so maybe it was lack of iron after all. I slept the whole day yesterday first sleep I've had in

Genetic/familial RLS
Genetic/familial rls respond to iron in the same way? Just found out that my sister suffers from rls and we feel that our father may have. I have taken three months of iron with no improvement at all in fact, the rls is worsening. I am about to request a recheck of iron panel. Just wondered,
