Help with next appointment following loading doses
Following a B12 of 194ng/L (187 - 883) in August, in Sept it was 208. MMA and Folate both “normal” but Homocysteine was slightly above range so I have been given 6 loading doses and daily Folic Acid. (I don’t have the actual results other than the B12). I didn’t have any really noticeable response

Am I going the wrong way? ⬇️
Morning lovely people, my GP lowered my Thyroxin to 75mg from 100mg a month ago in order to get my TSH levels up, which have barely moved in ten years and were at 0.01 for ages and ages. This happened after I was prescribed T3 by a specialist just over ten years ago who has now even struck off. I can

GP Consultation
Well, I had my f2f GP consultation today and I was pleasantly surprised by his reaction. All bloods were within range (?) and there was no other cause for concern although there was no T4 or T3 test, only TSH. I went ready for a battle armed with various printouts but thankfully it wasn’t needed as

Ferritin levels
I have collected my blood test results and am looking for information before my g.p. follow up appointment tomorrow.I am under the impression that ferritin levels should be "optimum" in order for my B12 injections to work for pernicious anaemia.

Vitamin B12
Just wondering what is classed as optimal B12 with Hashimoto’s? Mine is 84.7 (37.5-150). I don’t take it for a week before blood tests due to it affecting thyroid results. Recently been feeling lightheaded, tingly and getting lots of head rushes and mild headaches and sensitivity to light so trying
