Can pernicious anaemia be caused by long term use of lansoprazole?
Hello everyone, I am a lady of 67. Ive been taking lansoprazole for years. Then I began to feel ill with various symptoms the doctor was not interested in or would virtually say I was a hypocondriac. I nagged and got sent to a consultant who said I had neurological problems caused by fibromylgia and

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

stomach burning, acid reflux and anxiety
I would appreciate any help in combatting a burning stomach. I have had IBA for 30 years and was diagnosed with acid reflux and a hiatal hernia 2 years ago with Barrett’s Oesophagus but managed to calm it down with acupuncture and homeopathy. However, anxiety kicked off stomach burning 3 months ago and

High dose Ergocalciferol (Vit. D-2) for Osteoporosis?
Since losing my long time primary doctor last year, I am on my second doctor for advice for osteoporosis. I was reluctant to take Prolia recommended by the first D.O. doctor and the second Internist Doctor recommended 50,000 (I think IU) weekly for a couple of months. I haven't picked up the prescription

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

Why do all my symptoms suggest hyperthyroid if my results show hypo?
Hi everyone! I got my thyroid results about a month ago - first time ever tested. My GP initially wanted to test my thyroid because of these symptoms: sudden severe anxiety, trouble sleeping, shakiness, palpitations. I've also had increased sweating and some diarrhoea (not bad). I've lost some weight

New rules at GP surgery
My lovely GP retired a year ago and has not been replaced, and pressures on the Health Centre have led to the inevitable! I showed up a couple of weeks ago for my two monthly B12 jab only to be told that my levels needed to be tested and a review of B12 required. I had been supplementing with sublingual

Just another notch in the “how crazy is B12” totem pole. I just got back from an optometrist appt which I had booked because, after updating my prescription in May, I now cannot wear these new glasses (one for reading and one for long distance/driving). The new lenses were giving me vertigo, nausea

switching/alternating Hydroxocobalamin and cyanocobalamin?
excuse my ignorance but I thought I’d check with those that know before I blindly go doing something silly. I was reading the NHS B12 pages and saw they only offer hydroxcobalamin and they suggest this lasts longer. So I’ve ordered some Pascoe to try. I have stock of cyanocobalamin and use that twice

I GAVE UP.
I will try and be short about my story. It is a snapshot of events whilst I was on Levothyroxine for more or less 25 yrs. I never felt well and was never referred to an endocrinologist. I gained weight, my hair thinned. I had problems not only with my voice, but swallowing food. I had brain fog, acute

Intravenous C
I was reading this short report (our BAT friends are involved) thinking it showed real promise for C, then in conclusion they say no. Agreed the p values are high, the CIs are wide, but the results were so lopsided that to me it merely means the trial was underpowered and C is worth a try. High-Dose

After tests it was found that I had very little vitamin D, B12 and folic acid so I now have to take these daily. I was also given heart medication and a blood thinner. I never
