PA/b12 and ferratin
Hi, extremely confused here, I have been seeing a neurology specialist for cluster headaches, my last appointment I mentioned that I'm mixing my words up and my RLS (restless leg syndrome is getting worse).He asked if I'd had my bloods done and who was overseeing care.. I am PA, B12 deficient, folate

heartburn/acid reflux?
Hi all, I just started injections for low B12 (caused by pernicious anemia, as confirmed by antibody testing and an endoscopy) around 3 weeks ago now. While I still feel tired I can already tell that some of my symptoms are improving: I have more energy and I am also having less indigestion. But weirdly

What’s the protocol for GP actioning full iron panel?
It’s become apparent that my daughter’s ferritin levels are deficient and she’s going to put in a request to her GP for a full iron panel. I routinely read here that one shouldn’t supplement with iron based on a low ferritin reading alone but I’d like to know what the supporting information for this

Chronic pain , degenerative spinal disease
I am at the end of my tether with chronic pain and more recently, peripheral neuropathy. Every 8 weeks I have a B12 injection for management of Pernicious Anaemia diagnosed in 1985. However, the pains shooting into my toes and burning sensation around week 6, drives me crazy. The GP is nice but does

New Year New Bloods! It's time to titrate! Please help!
I made it to 8 weeks. This feels like a long post - I have both Thyroid and Iron issues to work out... I tried to make it shorter, but did not succeed, so here is a 5 bullet summary first.
TL;DR: Got results I didn't quite expect:
- I only changed a wee bit... + 12.5 on the levo
Changed

Vitamin Deficiciencies and lack of GP support
We have been pushing mum’s GP to read up on the Mayo Algorithm to try and get to a workable solution… We have stalled on the first hurdle unfortunately…. We requested that a full blood test be taken to determine any deficiencies in vitamins B1,B3,B6,B12,D3,K2,Potassium, Copper and Magnesium.

Blue Horizon Thyroid Gold test price drop and Active B12 inclusion
Hello, I know someone who knows someone etc. at Blue Horizon. And it has been annoying me that they haven't included Active B12 in their Thyroid Gold Premium test as really that only leaves me with Medichecks Advanced Thyroid which is in theory fine, but I like to have a choice. So I told the person

low iron and folate
My hypo daughter is clearly feeling tired. She leads a very busy life but from own hypo past experience I can see she is going downhill. Here are some of the results she received back in August when she was advised to take Spatone. At that time she had been taking iron tablets but had stopped because

B12 self-💉s: dose, form ... & frequency . . .
One small study from ~2015 of B12 💉s showed the benefits reported in those with CFS/ME & FM varied with: a) form of B12, . . . - methyl- form better than hydroxo-, b) frequency - those having more frequent 💉s did/felt better, . . . & c) dose - 5mg methyl better than 1mg hydroxo . . . Seems like

Is this common? fatigue and joint pain / cold hands and feet
On my 3rd month of treatment for active TB, currently on Rifampin, isoniazid, and b6. Looking at 6 months of treatment, maybe 9. I feel fatigued all the time, even with good sleep, exercise, drinking lots of water, eating whole foods and probiotics— like this general feeling of unwell and tiredness.

T4 14.8 TSH 3.41
Hi, I’m new to the forum and blood tests in general so hopefully I will give relevant info. I’m 54 and have had fatigue for the past 6 months. I’ve always been fairly low energy but this is a different level. I am 10 years post menopause so it’s not that, and I’ve been on HRT a long time. My blood

looking for advice please
Hi, not really sure what I’m looking for. Perhaps guidance or reassurance. I stumbled across this site whilst googling symptoms and so happy to find somewhere that isn’t as scary as Dr Google! A little background, I’m 37, non drinker. About 18 years ago I started to get pain under my right ribs. I

Thyroid, Cortisol And Sodium Question
Hi All, Got my latest results and it's a bit messy. I got off NDT 1,5 grains and switched to 88 mcg of levo, my old levo I was on before. Prior to that, I was on 75/88 mcg, alternating. So I increased and now re-checked my bloods after 8 weeks. Btw, I'm well versed in everything recommended here

Vitamin B1
I read that if you have RLS you might be short of vitamin B1. Has anyone knowledge of this.
