vitamin b12 deficiency
Hello, I am writing to ask if any one following a plant based/vegan diet has been told their
vitamin
b12
is low. I get so confused as what the best way to eat for a kidney diet. I was hoping plantbased/vegan would be best but now it has led to a new issue. Just so confused.

Timings for taking supplements
So from looking at previous posts, am I right in thinking: First thing - Levothyroxine With breakfast - b vitamins (start with
b12
and a week later add b complex?) and
vitamin
d Four hours later - iron Also, do I need to take magnesium if I’m taking vitamin d?

An error I forgot about.
A few months back I used a multi use vial after not having used it for an unknown time. I have sense come to understand that once the vial is open one should either use it up or throw it away. I use 90 days as my maximum length of time to use a vial once it is opened or mixed. I take tape and write

self injecting problem
I posted before about fracturing my shoulder and couldn't self inject one handed, found out that the local pharmacist do B12 injections which solved my problem. Though I should point out I think they would adhere to the NICE recommendations of every 3 months and you obviously have to pay for it,

B12 expiry date
Hi all. I have around 20 vials of B12 and have just checked the expiry date. It is the end of this month! 🙄Is the expiry date fixed, or am I able to use them safely for a period of time after the expiry date? I assume the effectiveness of the B12 may be compromised after the expiry date? 🤔

Interesting
At least I think so. I have started to experience the pins and needles of Paresthesia. I have never experienced this symptom before. It does not worry me as it is likely the result of my healing with effective self treatment and it is reasonable to assume it will be resolved. I did make the error of

How to persuade TSH-obsessed Endo I'm not over-replaced (on T3-only)?
I supplement with iron,
B12
,
vitamin
D and selenium. My BP is low, my resting heart rate is low 60 bpm. I did struggle with a 19kg weight gain because of insulin resistance, but ditching the gluten and refined carbs solved that and I'm now a healthy weight.

How can you get homocysteine test on NHS
I’ve had an under active thyroid for many years and now I think may be B12 deficient too. Also have high blood pressure. I’ve been doing a lot of research recently and read about the importance of homocysteine. I had it tested privately about six years ago and it was at the “high end of normal” then

PA and oral B12 supplements
I have recently been diagnosed with PA and I’ve had an initial booster course of 6x B12 injections with a plan for 3 monthly injections for life (based, I understand, on local UK NHS protocols, or how my GP has interpreted them). I was therefore wondering if there is any benefit in taking oral B12

Help me find a post please. Male PA member linked a journal article about his success with an innovative depression procedure.
I thought I saved it for a loved one, but can not find it. The member had a procedure done that involved brain stimulation for depression, that still existed even with b12 supplementation. And he had an article written about how successful the procedure was for him I am on Thyroid UK as well so he

Three years in
Today three years ago I walked into a emergency room. I could only walk 60 yards without resting. I had to stop driving 6 times during a 40 minute drive. Luckily I was admitted and luckily my B12 was finally tested and was <150 which is the lowest level that this particular lab tests for. I started

B12 help
Following on from previous post I have an under active thyroid (Hashimoto’s) and my bloods from October 2021 was MCH 32.8 (27-32) and B12 was 379 (197-771). I read online the MCH this high was macrocytic anaemia but my endo didn’t tell me that. I have been supplementing B complex and sometimes B12

Having trouble ordering b12 as there is apparently a shortage in Australia. Help!!
I am in New Zealand but ordered my B12 from Australia. Without warning, I have just discovered there is a shortage that may go on to as far off as March next year. I am really stressed. Can anyone help with alternatives? I was told Germany did not send to Australia and wondered if NZ was the same. Thanks
