Is 3 times enough? And inherit.
I've been si M,W & F for couple months now and beginning to think it's not enough. Not sure if this happens to anyone else, but I get very tired, and weak until I eat something. It's a night and day difference after I eat, then a few hours later that all repeats. Do you all think I may need to increase

Hello and happy new year everyone!! Aching legs when I walk more then 50 yards (in a nutshell)!!
Hello All, It's been ages since I wrote a post. I have been relatively OK for a while and then went down hill middle of December with my annual COPD freakout chest infection - heavy duty antibiotics sorted that out but of course, as I have discovered, "old age don't come alone". I am 70 now and although

Tablets v Injections
Hi, After a few years of monitoring my B12 levels are now low enough for my GP to offer treatment. I was expecting injections but have been prescribed tablets. Is anyone else on these ? I assumed from what I had read that injections were the primary option. Thanks

Low iron, supplementing with 3 Arrows
Hi everyone, I posted about a week ago after having iron studies done through the NHS, it came back that I wasn’t iron deficient enough to be treated by a doctor, but my levels were definitely low enough to start treatment since I’m already experiencing symptoms and don’t want to get worse…..

IBS and B12
good evening, I hope everyone is doing well I am wondering about the link between B12 deficiency and IBS. I have been getting bi weekly injections for almost 2.5 years now. Doing fairly well and the vast majority of my symptoms and nerve issues have subsided. I have no tested positive for PA but

NICE Guidelines Delay?
Does anyone have any information about the delay for the publication date of the new NICE B12 guidelines to be moved from next week to early March? I need the new guidelines to fight for reinstatement of my 8 weekly injections which were stopped when I changed to a new surgery which insists on testing

Iron and B12
Just caught the back end of a TV programme where a "doctor" was advising that an iron deficiency and vit B12 deficiency may be the cause of peoples T issues. Anyone been down this route or have I misheard the TV? Tried using search function in the forum but never found anything TIA

Blood results
Have recently had a private blood test done to check my B12, results were 47.4 (range 37.5-188) It was an active B12 test. Notes from doctor were it is borderline, and for me to get a mma blood test next, is this something the gp will do for me even though my results are not low?

best place for b12 ampoules
well now I know my out of date stock isn’t worth using where are people buying their b12 for injections? I last bought before the final brexit from Germany but prices have gone through the roof!

HiI am new here with a question for my daughter (19). She is really struggling with fatigue so much so she is home from Uni. Also feels sick, headaches, really cold hands and feet and very pale. She had low ferritin last year and was put on iron tablets for 3 months. She went for a private blood test

Feeling anxious about appointment....
Just wondering if anyone can shed any information that may help me understand. I've been unwell most of 2023, was in hospital for 8 days with suspected pneumonia. Prior to this I've had abnormal blood tests for a while. I'm anemic but my iron levels, vitamin b12 levels are fine... I've had a number

What the heck, Thyroid!?
Well, I found myself in this forum by following bread crumbs left by FancyPants54 Thankfully she's a bit messy with her snacks 😊 I've been on Pernicious anemia forum for the past few years dealing with my PA/AMAG. I think I may have been selected by whomever makes such selections to have the benefit

I saw Dr Scott Cooper this morning and I am hopeful that he will help me. He was familiar with augmentation and was very thorough is his examination. He has ordered a full iron panel and checking B12 and magnesium levels. In all he is doing 3 panels. He is also doing nerve conductivity test. He said

That there is a point where if B12 is injected at a certain amount and frequency that any increase in amount or frequency will have no effect. —---------------------------------------------------------- I had a similar understanding when I first started injecting. Now I understand that frequency is

Hello I am new to this forum but a long time member of Thyroid UK who basically saved my life 13 years ago. I am 70, have mild COPD, and until recently have been relatively healthy. I took a dive in Oct/Nov last year and have had chronic fatigue really since the end of last Summer. I thought - "Ah

high active B12
Hi, This is an extension from my previous post which has all the history on it. I think I’m going to email my haematologist for a referral to gastro re my 2 inflammation markers and abdominal issues maybe causing absorption issues. Could this be a thing with such high levels of active B12, as I can

Interpret test results - advice please
I've been on 75 mcg levothyroxine since 23 August 2023. I've taken levothyroxine since January 2023. Is this the correct dosage now? I've never had any of the conventional hypothyroid symptoms, except for extreme anxiety and disregulated nervous system, gut issues and tinnitus. On the 75mcg I feel
