GP call
Well quite a good discussion with my GP just now! Reiterated my symptoms of B12 deficiency, Folate deficiency, Hypothyroidism, vegetarian and having a gastric band 12 years ago a lightbulb came on! Oh so yes probably good idea for B12 injections! She said she will write to gastroenterologists (I thought

Buying Hydroxocobalamin in Spain
Hello, my GP did allow me a prescription (usually an annual one) but this time on 5 ampoules.. oh well. I'm off to Gran Canaria tomorrow, paddle boarding! I wonder if B12 can be bought OTC there? If I don't have enough B12, I become wobbly and fall of my board ;)

Other blood results
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

Folate test prep
I’ve been asked to retest my folate as this was rejected from my latest batch of blood tests, earlier this month. I’ve not had just folate tested before (only as part of a wider set of tests) please can you advise on any prep I need to do for just folate? Assuming I should stop Thorne Basic B

What to ask Endo?
Hi all Sorry this is quite long. I'm looking for some advice about next steps and what to ask my Endo when I see him next week. Background: I spoke to my GP in March 22 because I was exhausted and anxious and people I barely knew were commenting how awful I looked! She ordered a load of tests which

B12 or Menopause?
In Dec I was diagnosed with B12 deficiency <148 and low folate <2.2. I had 6 loading doses into the beginning of January plus a month of folic acid and felt better quite quickly. Since then I have felt worse again so I had another blood test last week. My b12 is now 559 which is normal and folate is

Hypothyroid for 30 years
I've been Hypothyroid for 30 years, I take Levothyroxine 100μg during the night - to keep it separate from all the other meds I have for other conditions. I follow the advice that certain foods are 'not helpful' for a hyperthyroid condition (Brussel sprouts, Cauliflower - which I have very occasionally

FBC Test results help please
Hi, I mainly hang around the thyroid forum and a bit on here as I've injected B12 in the past.

I'm trying to get him to ask GP for B12, Ferritin, Folate and vit D to be

Has Anyone Watched The Film?
Whilst looking online elsewhere at B12 issues I came across a film (American) which on further investigation was a dramatisation of Sally Pacholok’s book ‘It Could Be B12’. The film was simply called ‘Sally Pacholok’. It’s on YouTube. It wouldn’t have won any Oscars but it still does a good job of

How to improve your blood pressure
I have recently fallen in love. With capillaries. In his brilliant book, ‘The Secret Language of Cells’, Dr John Leif, physician and neuroscientist, dedicates a whole chapter to them, calling these tiny vessels, ‘brain centres’ of tissue development. With a yogic lens, this speaks to the body intelligence

I have ALL of the symptoms of PA and it is ruining my life. My GPs won't look further.
Hello, I have been suffering for a year with all of the symptoms of PA. My b12 levels have fallen from 550 to 280 within a year... my b12 tests come back low normal or normal and my GP doesn't believe me that I could still have PA - in the form of a functional b12 deficiency. They have been SO quick
