PA in a child?
Does anybody have any experience of PA in children? My almost 6 year old daughter has been suffering with mouth ulcers for the past 6 months and I’m just wondering if she might have PA? I was diagnosed at 23 (now 40). My sister, brother and nephew (14) have recently tested positive for intrinsic factor

Macrocytic anemia returned
Hi all, I’m interested to hear about your experiences with different forms of B12 injections to see if you’ve find some forms ineffective compared to others. For some background, I found out I had macrocytic anemia due to B12 deficiency around 2016 and have been injecting monthly or so ever since. I

20 yrs B12 def
OMG! My doctors have given me all my past medical records that were in paper form as they are now computerized only. I have been reading them and discovered that the MCV AND MCH has been really high for at least 20 yrs consistently. It has never lowered. I am assuming this was also having an effect on

Recent blood test results
I decided to discontinue Levothyroxine because it has never made me feel better since I started taking it in 1994- decided on the 7th Sept 2023 to take NDT Thyroid S - full thyroid blood test done end Oct results below. TSH is too low because I increased NDT too quickly to 2 grains- I have now reduced

Meds and PA
I totally see the influence of big pharmaceutical companies' involvement in the manipulation and control of how diseases like this are dealt with. No money in vitamins! My previous doctor didn't want me to have regular b12 to treat my PA even though he reiterated the fact it was harmless, but prescribed

How much folic acid while on ED injections?
I inject b12 daily or at least every other day for over two years now. I'm lots better by now but have still slight polyneuropathy left. During this time I've experimented with different dosages of folic acid (as well as with methyl folate and folinic acid) but I'm still not sure what works best for

Irregular platelets in PD
I have just enrolled Laurie Mischley's online Parkinson's School, and to say I'm finding it enlightening is an understatement. Importantly, it's prompted me to have my B12 (and various other) blood levels tested again for the first time since 2017. The bloods results show various low and high results

pregabalin and iron
Hello, I have tried googling if there is any interaction between pregabalin and iron but can’t find anything. I take an iron tablet due to low iron (morning and it has not helped) but will switch to iron bisglycinate at night after reading posts here. I stop eating at 6:30pm so I can take my pregabalin

The cause of my B12 deficiency.
The most likely reason for my B12 deficiency is my body uses B12 faster than is normal for reasons unknown and unstudied other than me as far as I know. This is why self treatment that increases the frequency which was at first based on more B12 was effective. To inject more B12 I coincidentally injected

BP Meds
Hi Does anyone have any idea if there are blood pressure medications that can be taken intravenously? The only medications I can tolerate have once again bitten me in the rear. Since November of last year I have tried 3 times and ended with severe IBS from these meds each time. Blatantly obvious

Can of worms
I have always been grateful for all the help I have received from HealthUnlocked since I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's some eight years ago. For the last few years, I have done very well on 100 mcgs of Levothyroxine and 8 mcgs T3 per day. I find a Keto, completely gluten free and almost entirely organic

anaemia and ADT
just had full blood test before I press on with ADT aiming for 18 months and done 9 months adjuvant with RT for G9 - as posted before my oncologist seems to lean to me stopping ADT now as worries about the effect in my polio - though she isn’t a polio expert of course, she just thinks the extra gain

I was back on levothyroxine for eight months too long.
I haven't been active much lately. My elderly parents were both in different hospitals and working as well; it left me no time to find a new thyroid Dr.. My dad passed away at 90 years young, and Mum is sad but doing better. I ended up back on levothyroxine for eight months as I was as busy as a one-legged

Low TSH
Hi - I've got my 3rd lot of results from Medichecks since March which I will take to appointment with private Endo. Test taken fasting with no meds beforehand and at 8:55am I'm pleased with levels of folate, B12 and Vit D which I've worked on. Ferritin has gone down though. The T3 is low of course
