dark shadows in inside corners of eyes
what could cause these dark shadows in my granny's eyes, it's on both sides, it appears every few months and can last for months sometime. She gets b12 injections but her levels are fine and she had her last injection a week ago. Any thoughts are much appreciated

Imbibe B12 Ampoules ?
hello, seems a strange question. I decided to try some Panpharma ampoules and the stinging is unbearable. Sane needles, tried different spots same awful stinging. Give me pain injecting anytime over this. There is no way I m going to inject even 1 ampoule. So rather than waste them I can either

Has anyone tried Neovos for an MMA urine test please?
Hi...wondering if anyone has tried these for tests please? I've used St Thomas hosp in past but they stopped over covid and am awaiting to hear back from them about current testing. Meanwhile these came up as offering a b12 urine test for £63,which is for MMA considerably cheaper than others available

Pascoe B12 in the USA?
Is it possible to buy the Pascoe B12 in the USA? Last B12 shot I had, one my insurance would allow, gave me an allergic reaction. Was told by some friends that I might be able to tolerate the Pascoe.

B12 injections - advice please
Hi, I have been diagnosed with hypothyroidism, but also have very low B12 levels (not clear if PA). I was prescribed B12 injections privately - Hydroxycobalamin. However, the pharmacy can issue me with the ampules, but no means to inject it so I’m into working out plan B. Possibly getting the ampules

B12 - advice on injections please
Hi, can anyone tell me if there is a reason you should have Hydroxycobalbumin rather than Methylcobalbumin form of B12 injected..? Hydroxycobalbumin is the precursor of the other with Methylcovalbumin being the active form (from what I can tell) and both seem to be available in the UK for injection.

First BMD in 8 years
I got a BMD and have been considering echolyte in the year ahead to inform my numbers with more information. I wonder what some of your concerns for me might be as I debate medication or no medication. I am an active 68 year old woman. I walked 920 miles in 8 weeks in a wellness competition. I am

Understanding Thyroid Test Results
This is the first time I have posted on this site. I have had hypothyroidism for 17 years now and had yearly blood tests. I must admit I have never understood what the result has meant other than the GP saying it's satisfactory. My recent test was Serum TSH level 2.14 mu/1. This means nothing to me and

warning re gastroscopy and gastrografin for ME/CFS sufferers . Plus neuropathy ?
I saw a very nice colorectal surgeon who arranged a CT colonography - as I thought this would be physically less demanding than a full colonoscopy. Two days after the scan I spent the whole day throwing up violently. You can get a ‘rare’ delayed reaction to Gastrografin, the iodine contrast medium.

Elderly mum exhausted, overweight, unmotivated, yellow tinge skin on sides of face
Hello, I'm really struggling trying to get the GP to sort my mum out. She's nearly 88yrs old and in the last few years has put on an excessive amount of weight, she was a size 12, now she is almost a 20! She is absolutely exhausted, just says she has no energy at all and barely gets dressed each day

High Blood Pressure In Between injections
Hi , I’m newly diagnosed with PA, Still having neurological symptoms of para thesis in my arm/ hand - I’ve now had 22 injections of B12 since the end of Feb and continuing whilst my GP awaits advice from a haematologist. Every time the injections are stopped or a gap longer than a week my BP shoots

labs results that contraindicate one another
Hi all, I’ve been having pretty constant parasthesias on both sides of my body usually worse from shoulders down to fingers, initial B12 level was 190 (was 845 four years ago). New doctor had me test for IF antibodies immediately after giving me a B12 injection which was negative and she stated

Hypocellular bone marrow. Can anyone tell me more?
I was diagnosed with B12 deficiency ("low serum B12") over 15 years ago when debilitating exhaustion was putting my job at risk. Doctors assumed diet related because I was usually vegan at home but still ate meat and fish two or three times a week. I am diary intolerant with eczema (but crave custard

Iron & PLMD
I had an iron panel done a while back, is there any explanation or link to PLMD & the transferrin % being so high? My ferritin test from about a month ago was 200ug/l & had previously been about 250ug/l. I did start regular b12 jabs around the time of the 250 test,so that might account for the ferritin
