Folic acid
Hello all, I have always suffered with anxiety and heart palpitations. Recently, they became worse and I went to the GP who sent me for a blood test. The blood test showed that I have folic acid deficiency(<2.0). I've been taking 5mg folic acid for two months (I have two months left to go) and

I am on a short course of Doxycycline for a skin infection. Should I not take my MXT during this time? I take 20mgm MXT once a week orally and the usual Folic acid daily except for the MXT day. The course is about one week

Ooops
Just realised I took folic acid and did MTX jab yesterday evening. Can't undo obviously but should I skip folic today? What effect will this mistake have?

low iron and folate
My hypo daughter is clearly feeling tired. She leads a very busy life but from own hypo past experience I can see she is going downhill. Here are some of the results she received back in August when she was advised to take Spatone. At that time she had been taking iron tablets but had stopped because

What should my optimal vitamin levels be please?
Hi there, I’m trying to get vitamin levels up to hopefully help with poor conversion. Iron was low and I’ve recently retested for that after supplementing for about 3 months. Ferritin is now at 65 ug/L Folate has dropped from >45 a year ago to 8.5ug/L My question is what should they ideally be?

I struggle with cramps, lower back pain and hip pain the week before my period, the week of my period and the week after so I seem to only get 1 week out of 4 where I'm not in pain. I had an internal ultrasound

low folate
hi all, I’m sorry for another post. I’ve just been to the doctor. He will check my stool but said my folate as low. 3.4 (range 3.00- 17.00). Could this be the culprit? Extreme extreme tiredness, very bad headaches, weakness, feeling low, irritability. Hot flushes..

I lost count of how many different pills I took and had most of their side effects (apart from blood clots thankfully!). It got to a point

Worsening insomnia can anyone help?
I’ve recently reduced my Levo dose because my T4 was 93% through the range and I was having palpitations. I was on 100mcg so now on 75mcg 4 times a week and 100mcg 3 times a week. Energy wise this is actually the best I’ve felt so far. Unfortunately the insomnia has worsened in the last few weeks where
