DBS cancelled due to improvement of UDPRS measurement
Hello all, I am new here and wanted to share my story. In Feb. 2018, my left foot started to drag and for many years before my left arm would not swing. I probably had this symptom for years and considered it my normal way of walking. It has been 7 years with increasing dosages of levodopa. Throughout

URGENT help needed please .. heart operations cancelled because of suppressed TSH
Hi I was supposed to have a pacemaker & then an ablation 6 weeks later at Liverpool heart hospital as part of the pre op they did a blood test TSH 0.001 they cancelled the ops & referred me urgently to an endo I’m due a telephone consultation with endo on the 5th September which is absolutely ridiculous

B12 injections
can we have B12 injections to lower MCV and MCH.? My RBC is below range my hct is below range. Folate low B12 in serum shows in range but as we know people with myloproliferative disorders will get B12 results in range but it’s not getting to cellular level

Blood results help
Hi all Originally diagnosed 2017 b12 was 71, iron was 8 and folate was 2. I’ve had a couple of folic acid lows which have been treated. Things have got gradually better, however the last couple of months have been awful. Racing heart, flooding periods, pins and needles, exhaustion etc.

Transferrin?
Hello! I've been reading and learning so much here - so much knowledge and kindness... I've just got some blood tests back after 1 month on Levo and my TSH is down, T4 up and cholesterol down - yay! There are still some tests to come in, but I just noticed that my transferrin level is below range

When folate is low does anyone feel very nervous
I have increased B12 injections while on antibiotics for an infection and finding it hard to keep everything else in range due to poor appetite .I take 400 mcg folic acid .would I feel very nervous and shaky with low folate or because of general infection

Blood Test Results.
Just a quick question. I had my monthly B12 injection two days before having a blood test. Could this make my b12 levels abnormally high? TIA

A little advice on latest test results
Hello all, you have all been incredibly kind and helpful in the past.. and I wondered if I could pick your brains again about my latest test results.. I have been following Ray Peat’s ‘non diet’ diet, and I’m wondering if actually it’s not working for me. To me I can see that my estrogen is at the lower

body giving up on me after Covid… the saga continues!
Hi all - body is still really giving up on me after contracting Covid in May and struggling to put it all right. I’ve had pernicious anaemia for many, many years but never experienced anything like this. My B12 definitely isn’t working properly and neither is my stomach! First came the tanking ferritin

Vitamin B injection
Hi there, my husband has been taking a b complex and a b12 supplement but hus b12 levels are still low so a doc prescribed a shot that includes B1, B6 and B12. Does that mean he can skip the pills? What about the other Bs, it doesn't seem very balanced? BTW, he doesn't have thyroid issues, but he didn't

Hi all, so happy to have found this forum. I was diagnosed as B12 deficient just a couple of weeks ago after being unable to attribute my weird collection of symptoms to either a busy life (fatigue, brain fog) or spinal nerve inpingement (cramp, twitches, bone pain). It was the lip twitching that finally

New test results as been feeling yuk.
Decided to have another Medichecks two days ago, now six weeks post covid negative. I’ve been quite hyper, getting hung up on cleaning, sleep is all over the place, full of rage so I knew things weren’t right. Craving coffee (rationing to 2 a day) and sugar - my mouth doesn’t even want to realise I’m

Folate
You know me, always looking for answers to try and help myself and get shot of all these horrible symptoms. I have been having a bit of a read up on folate as in what symptoms you might experience if it's too low. Tbh I am not quite sure how optimal in the range it should be but from looking back at

These are my latest results, I will be restarting my B12 injections as my symptoms have come back and that made me want to retest. The levels have dropped quite a lot and quite quickly considering the last time I had them done they were well over 2000! I'm speaking to my Endo tomorrow as I have a

Help for a friend please
Please could someone have a look at my friend’s recent blood test results. Some years ago, she can’t remember when, she was diagnosed with borderline hypothyroidism and given medication for this. She can’t remember what this was or the dose but the doctor told her to stop taking it after a short while
