Folate supplements with B12 injections
I am currently receiving loading doses (3 so far). I was low on B12 at 170 and low on folate (about 2) as well as macrocytic but not anaemic. Incidentally, I have low WBC but they are not sure if this is due to a bad infection a couple of months ago.I have been prescribed folate supplements but I didn't

Do Drs get a bonus for prescribing certain drugs ?
Does anybody know if Gps get a hand out for prescribing statins ? There has been a lot of controversy in regard to this topic. Late yesterday afternoon I had a call from my surgery. It was a Dr I had never heard of or had I spoken to her before. She was suggesting I were put on statins! I asked for

vitamin deficiencies
I had most of my sigmoid removed because of diverticulitis five years ago. My question is my surgeon said that it should not affect my vitamin or mineral intake because the sigmoid doesn’t involve that. Got on finding that it most certainly does I get a B12 injection because I’m a vegetarian so that

Feeling dreadful but doc says results are fine!
Hi there, I was diagnosed with underactive thyroid back in July 2020. I was prescribed 25mg levothyroxine which was increased to 50mg after 6 months. Shortly after starting levothyroxine I started getting stiffness in my neck and shoulders along with pain in my hips and groin - the only way I can

Update after Endo
Good morning, I'm just writing this as an update to anyone who may be interested in my seemingly-odd case... My Endo appointment went well. (Or so I thought but if you're learning from this post, please read the comments!) She believes I have Graves disease, despite the antibodies indicating Hashimotos

Considering Conception & Ideal Thyroid Levels
Hi all. I finally saw an endocrinologist and they suggested increasing thyroxine dose by 20% when doing an embryo transfer to ensure adequate thyroxine. I asked about FT3 and FT4 levels but they were only interested in TSH which didn’t make sense given it only signals thyroid production and isn’t a thyroid

Pink Tribe/Vita Blossom B12 complex v Health Leads
For months I’ve been taking PT or VB but decided to try Health Leads on a recommendation but guess what(?!!), my urine has taken on that bright yellow colour and familiar odour of the types of B12 product I’d stopped taking. Does this mean it’s an inferior product and I’m just peeing it down the loo

B12 and remyelization
This article was interesting to me due to frequent mention of the importance of B12 to nerve remyelization: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/2192568218758633 I inject B12 daily because of the possibility that it helps to insure presence of B12 whenever and wherever remyelization might

Blood Test Results Help Please
I have just got my blood test results back. I was diagnosed with Hashimotos Thyroiditis in 1994. My TSH is low & my T4 is low in the range. The lab refused to test my T3. My Folate is low & I feel my B12 is at the low end of the range (to feel well). My GP has just texted me re the Folate, but ignored
