Badminton Bolt 10K Race Report ⚡️😎👍
I had to do this one. It’s on my doorstep, the funds go to support a local school, the location is beautiful and it was my first 10K race since December 2021!!! Oh, and there was going to be bling 🤩 I didn’t find out until this morning that this was the very first Bolt 10K. There has been a 5K before

Where to buy supplies
I've had lots of helpful links to information etc in another post. But I'm still none the wiser on what and where to buy to self-inject. I have my first ever B12 jab booked for Monday afternoon at a beauty clinic but then I will want to continue myself. I already self-manage hypothyroidism (for which

At What Level Is Low B12 Treated?
Hi! I recently had some blood tests and my B12 came back low at 180, normal range 197-771. My folate was 4.7, normal range 3.9-26.8. Full blood count and ferritin fine, I had iron deficiency anaemia and have been successful treated for that and all those levels looking good. My question is, at what

Osteoporosis
I had PMR from 2016-2019. Took Alendronic Acic for about 6 weeks but stopped because it was affecting my throat. Had bone density scan around 2017 which showed some osteoporosis and some osteopenia (record has been lost due to GP/house move). I was offered an Infusion of AA which I had in 2017/2018.

Started #Zoladex to treat uterine #Polyps & bleeding/spotting is not stopping!!!
Guys I’m really hoping you can help or offer insight. I started experiencing irregular bleeding after taking progesterone only birth control pills. I continued onto the next pack and I didn’t stop bleeding. Dr gave me Tranexamic Acid and it stopped it for a while and continued taking pill every day

Do expired B12 hydroxocobalamin ampoules still work?
Do expired B12 hydroxocobalamin ampoules still work? I still have at least forty that expired back in February. I feel like they may not be working as I've had to increase SI from every other week to every week to feel normal again.

Can I inject twice a day?
Thanks to you guys I have been happily managing my B12 deficiency by self injecting Hydroxocobalamin 1500 every day. Of I don't inject daily my symptoms come back very fast. I recently had surgery and couldn't move my arms the day after surgery so couldn't inject then so I missed a day here and there

Changing from methyl to hydroxo worries
Hi everyone. I'm about to switch from methyl b12 ampules to Dr myhill's hydroxo, and I'm worried about side effects. I've only been SI for under a year and I've never had a break, so I don't know how I'll react. I've never injected hydroxo. I've been SI 0.5ml of the methyl EOD, which equates to 375mcg

Thoughts on test results
This is my first post. I’ve been avidly reading back through past information and found it very empowering - I’ve been inspired to take control of my health. I’ve just had results back from a Medichecks thyroid panel and would appreciate your thoughts. Full information about my history and symptoms

Is it needed and safe for my mom to supplement with folate or B12?
Hi all! I haven't posted before but I've been reading for a few months and find everything really helpful. My mom has had both chemotherapy and radiation this last year, and now has many overlapping symptoms with b12 and folate deficiencies (fatigue, mild neuropathy for years, mild memory loss/confusion
