I now have more results Serum folate 14.3 (3.1-17.5) Ferritin 138 (13-150) Iron 14 (5-28) B12 280 (200-940) Since they are in the range ‘everything is normal’! The coeliac one was clear so I can now try gluten free for 3 months to see if it makes any changes. But I am still tired, muscle aches

Vitamin/mineral deficiencies
Hi. I've had Pbc for 6 yrs now. Recently I've noticed that I am more fatigued than normal. I asked for my blood results over the last 10 yrs . I noticed a progressive decline in my ferritin levels over the last few yes. I had a vitamin b12 level done recently and it was just above the borderline/normal

Is this classed as low folate?
I'm a little confused about my blood test results. I'm not sure if I am posting in the right group! MCH and MCHC were slightly high which can indicate macrolytic anaemia. GP said I don't have that because my B12 and folate levels are fine (which are the usual causes). However, I posted the results

Iron could help B12 levels
Hi everyone, I’ve never post before… but I came across some useful information that could help you all. In my own personal experience I developed a b12 deficiency for no particular reason, I’ve been tested for pernicious anemia and that came back negative, I put it down to a mixture of a restricted

B12 Deficiency
Firstly I have it myself and due well on regular injections, however it is very poorly diagnosed and managed in this country, patients popped onto pills when they should be having jabs. 1. https://pernicious-anaemia-society.org/articles/nice-cks-b12-deficiency/#:~:text=Initially%20administer%20hydroxocobalamin

Could it be B12 deficiency?
I have been guided to this forum from Thyroid Uk and I’m hoping that, with your help, I can make sense of the fatigue and weakness I have been experiencing. In October last year I experienced what I can only describe as a crash. I am normally fit and active and had a lovely summer with many trips camping

Did I cause my PA?
So! I was visiting my doctor yesterday and voiced my concerns about gabapentin as he wants me to up the dose as says I can have up to 3000 mgs aday. I'm resistant having read what I have on the F/B gabapentin page. I told him I preferred to take daily b12 injections to treat my PA than take more painkillers

Thank you to all who replied to my post. They do an aqua class at the local sports centre so I'll give that a try first and see how I get on. They have a class on a Wednesdays and Fridays for 45 minutes. When I was there yesterday taking a look, the class was actually on and it looked as though it

Advise on blood test results
Hi Everyone All advice gratefully received. Although I have had hypothyroidism for 20+ years plus many other health problems. I have always just believed everything my doctors told me and I was either told my results were normal and everything was ok or not normal and I needed medication. I have

Can b12 be administered together with proton pump inhibitors?
I have been treated for years now for stomach ulcer without good relief. Two years ago, I underwent endoscopy test. The results showed some healed ulcer and some erosion which resulted to inflammation. The doctor said I had gastritis. He bombarded my system with antibiotics and proton pump inhibitors

Strange results! Would value opinions.
February 2022 on 125mcg Levo TSH 0.04 (0.27-4.2) FT3 5.22 (3.1-6.8) FT4 19.1 (12-22) January 2024 125 Levo 3mcg Lio TSH 0.0008 (0.27-4.2) FT3 4.7 (3.1-6.8) FT4 18.1 (12-22) After about a year adding Lio why has my FT3 lowered ?! Seems very odd. I mean I do feel quite a bit better. Still a slump
