Anyone had an iron infusion
My husband has CLL and has a problem with low B12 and folate. His ferritin is also stubbornly low for which he’s been recommended an iron infusion for deficiency anaemia and injections for his B12 deficiency I’m ok about the B12 injections but for some reason feel a bit nervous about the infusion but

urge to urinate, with pink in pee
Had an iron infusion and started B12 injections EOD a week ago, and today have strange sensation in bladder and sudden urge to pee, and it was pink. I have read that extra b12 can cause this. What are peoples experiences. I hope it is just excess B12 and nothing more sinister.

Which medicine is messing with my thyroid med uptake
Might anyone be able to suggest which of my other meds has affected my thyroid med uptake (100mcg thyroxine and 2x5mcg t3)? I was prescribed digoxin, furosemide and bisoprolol after having open heart surgery 3 mths ago to resolve some anatomical defects. Uptil that point thyroid levels were stable

I asked ChatGPT about Fosamax. How does the medication Fosamax fake your DEXA score?
This was the reply. Fosamax (alendronate) is a bisphosphonate medication used to treat and prevent osteoporosis. It works by inhibiting bone resorption, which is the process where bone is broken down and its minerals are released into the bloodstream. Here’s how Fosamax can influence Dexa (Dual-energy

Advice on Blood results please?
Hi, I'm not diagnosed with any thyroid problems but have had numerous blood tests over the last 4 years because of severe menopause symptoms that have not responded to HRT. Would you be able to have a look and see what you think please? I have also included some of the vitamins tested.

Started B12 injections and feel unwell. Lethargic, no energy, headache, brain fog, sore hands and feet.
Only two injections from six, so far. Don't feel great. Is this normal?

magnesium
I have been taking vit D and K2 for a while now and have been told that I should be taking magnesium to help with the absorption , only not sure which one to take, there’s so many . A friend has recommended magnesium bisglycinate , which I’ve not heard of. Also I’ve read that taking magnesium can interfere

Methionine restricted diet for recurring PSA and positive PMSA pet scan w/ 1 bone met
quick to the point. PSMA pet showed 1 L2 small met and some lymph activity. My PSA went from 2.01 to 2.9 in one month. after doing some research on diets and supplements . I found that the keto diet is extremely high in the amino acid methionine and I made it worse trying to reduce my blood pressure

Vitamin B12 deficiency from the perspective of a practicing hematologist
I feel this article contains many bits of information that often pop up on this forum, and explains them quite thoroughly and clearly. At the end is a statement that is relevant to most people on this forum, and I quote that statement: "It should be noted that patients with pernicious anemia at times

How long does a coeliacs blood test take to come back?
Exactly that! I had bloods done on Friday lunch time, including a FBC, B12, folate, and ferritin. Also Coeliac screen (TTG). All the others are back but not the coeliac screen yet. Is that usual?
