Vitamin B12
Just wondering what is classed as optimal B12 with Hashimoto’s? Mine is 84.7 (37.5-150). I don’t take it for a week before blood tests due to it affecting thyroid results. Recently been feeling lightheaded, tingly and getting lots of head rushes and mild headaches and sensitivity to light so trying

Fibroscan CAP scores
There are a few things that I don’t understand about Fibroscan CAP scores. I have looked at the NICE 49 full guideline which can be found here: https://www.nice.org.uk/guidance/ng49/evidence/full-guideline-pdf-2548213310 Fibroscan CAP scores are discussed in detail on pages 62 to 74; the CAP scores

Error but not a mistake
Having added Thiamine B1 and having it positive I regulated the changes by reducing the amount of times per day I supplemented. That was not an error. I did make the error of not quickly going back to my 5 times a day of supplementing. I do not consider it a mistake as how would I know? With the new

Folate/B12 advice
Folate - Serum 7.4 ug/L (>7)Vitamin B12 150 nmol/L (37.5 - 188) How can I get my folate up? I'm assuming it's way too low? I've been taking Thorne Basic B Complex or Liposomal B Complex daily for ages, plus a B12 spray occasionally if I forget. Should I take a seperate folate supplement?

Medichecks vs. NHS Results
Hi all. I'm wondering whether FlipperTD or indeed anyone else with some technical know-how, can make sense of my blood results. I've recently gained access to my GP records and can see that I've had low ferritin for at least 4 years. Levels have ranged from 17ng/L to 27ng/L on a range of (10

Full list of autoimmune tests I got
This has come up in various threads, so I figure it's worth posting. I got all these in search of severe then-unspecific neuro/immune troubles. There are always more tests, but this covers a good set. -- The ones with ** are esp common rheum tests : ------- PROTEIN ELECTROPHORESIS SERUM CK

Unable to SI
Sorry, slightly off topic. I do my daughters B12 injections for her, she has a needle phobia. She has just come out of hospital since an operation and is required to have 42 days of blood thinning injections, which I do each day at 7pm. There are some days where I really cannot be available.. she

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?

Hello All, Here are my daughters latest results, I’m still battling with GP plus NHS consultants to get anywhere. She has only been off any B12/folate for 5 weeks (she does eat B12 fortified foods) but has been taking iron. Her medical history is low platelets but she obviously also has hashimotos.

Hi. Apologies if this question has arisen before but I am new to this site. Shortly after hospitalisation in May for low oxygen I developed PN on the soles of my feet. I have just finished an 8 week course of B12 and go to the surgery for a blood test today. My feet seem to be improving but very, very

Opinion on my B12 and folate tests, and what are ideal levels?
I got the results back for my b12 and folate a few days ago. My folate is low, so I have changed my diet to get my folate up that way. I can't tolerate any supplement form even in small doses (folate, folinic, folic acid etc). What about my active b12 - Monitor My Health says it is fine, is that right

Blood Test Results Critique Please
Hi, just got my test results back. Would those who have more blood test result interpreting experience than I please comment on them. I asked for full blood count and iron panel, do these tests align with that request? I asked that B12 be excluded as I SI EOD. I take a magnesium supplement at 300mg,

11yo daughters latest results
Hello All, Here are my daughters latest results. She has been off any B12/folate for 5 weeks but has been taking iron. Her medical history is low platelets but she obviously has hashimotos. Really low FT4 but high FT3 (body flogging itself?), very bizarre. Symptoms: tiredness, lack of stamina, breathlessness

ET Jak2 . Low iron
I’m reaching out to the knowledgeable members of this incredible community from whom I have learned so much… to maybe give me some further insight…. I was diagnosed almost a year ago. Have been on Hydrea 2x500 a day. Have been feeling very ordinary of late… overwhelming fatigue, joint pain, the bloating

Can anyone comment on my daughter's blood tests and advise what - if anything - we should do next?
My daughter is 18. I first requested blood tests with the GP when she was 15. This was during covid. I had to fight over the phone for them but she'd put on weight rapidly, she especially looked to be retaining fluid in her legs, feet, hands and face. Other symptoms = tiredness, slow movements, dry eyes

Consultant referral and other stuff
Recently had my regular 3 month TSH test and it seems that im still just within the range. Yet again, seen another different doctor at the surgery as i can never get to see the same one.

Vit D deficient
for the last 3 years I’ve been experiencing peculiar feelings like the odd numbness in my hands and feet, weird almost tremblings up and down my arms, more anxiety than usual, awful muscle and bone pain in my legs and around my torso so as usual I put everything down to my AF or my hypertension. Anyway
