Female and male pre conception supplements
Hi Everyone!I'm looking for recommendations on pre conception supplements for me and my husband. My husband has a low sperm count so any recommendations to help that and I'm wondering are there any supplements for women that don't contain folic acid so I can take folate separately? Thanks :)

Update on Labs - What is Going On? :-)
Labs done ~7AM - 24 hours after T4 and 12 hours after T3, having stopped biotin 4 days prior. My endo has been good about letting me have needed T3 after being deficient for over a decade with other doctors. I am not sure what to make of the labs since she upped my T3 back in December. I started dosage

scared again. Blood in urine.
So I’ve previously had blood in urine, and urination issues non stop since that time. Approximately 3-4 years ago. I was peeing loads and had sensitive bladder. I had the Cystoscope (worst experience of my life). And mri scans as well as ultrasound. They all found nothing. I was discharged despite no

Recent blood test – Why do I feel so tired?
Hello, Please could you have a look at my recent blood test results and tell me what could be the cause of my constant tiredness? I find it hard to get out of bed in the morning and often wake up with brain fog. I often wake up during the night to pee. I often feel the need to fall asleep in the afternoon

Low Potassium/High Calcium Caution
Hi Guys I had a mineral check via a hair test and a DNA Methylation report via a mouth swab (corrected 16 June as I had them the wrong way round) as suggested by a nutritionist who has been helping me sort my gut and auto-immune issues. I wasn't expecting much ... but how lovely to be pleasantly surprised

Phlegmy chest and snotty nose - B12 reversing symptoms??
Hi all, I recently completed my 6 loading doses and am 4 weeks away from my 12 week top up. I am glad to say that most of the B12D issues have subsided if not disappeared (these were lethargy, numbness in thumb and forefinger and occasional twitches in right eyelid -not serious by other B12D suffers

Am I reversing out?
I feel like death. Every other time when I’ve been put on B12, twice before I noticed a gradual improvement in all my symptoms. My gp gave me loading doses only so I then nose dived. my main symptoms have always been frequent urination (I’ve had all other possibilities behind this checked and apparently

Hi, I live in Holland and SI EOD. I have a prescription for Hydroxocobalamin HCL twice a week and the rest I order from Germany. (Rotexmedica/Panpharma). Because of the shortages Hydroxo B12 in Holland and Panpharma I ordered Pascoe and started to feel very poorly. I also have Hashimoto so I started

What folate level should I aim for?
I've been searching and I cannot find the answer to this anywhere - what folate level should I aim for? I found one study where healthy men had a folate level of 12 ng/ml. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4236337/ Mine is deficient at 3 micro g /L (range 3-25). I'd love to know what is

Antibiotic for UTI
I have been prescribed nitrofurantoin from my surgery for my UTI. Bearing in mind they don’t acknowledge that I have a b12 deficiency, should I be taking them? I did mention it to the triage nurse I spoke. I started B12 injections a couple of weeks ago, so hoping it won’t cause me any problems, but

Bench mark blood tests before switching to NDT
I would welcome any comments or advice on these results and on the process of switching from levothyroxine to NDT. Thank you! Hypothyroidism I have been taking levothyroxin 100 mg for over 30 years since my early 40s. (This is my only medication. Otherwise I keep healthy with yoga, regular exercise

Hike in T-Score due to steroid use. Worrying.
Hi All, just yesterday I finally got results from my DEXA .scan which I had done on 3rd of April. My T Score was T-2.3 (osteopina). My last DEXA scan showed my T-Score as -1.7 and deemed to be ok. This is quite a hike and I'm quite upset by i seeing that T-2.5 is Osteoporosis. I am Prednisolone

needle size for IM injection?
just wanted to know what needle size I should be using? I am not sure what size the gp was using and was concerned the ones I am using may be a bit to short. I say this as although I am using the same b12 they do, it’s seeming less effective than when I had them through my gp.

FasFasting before blood test
hi, following my last post, my gp has agreed to add B12, ferritin etc to my annual thyroid review. I've been told here to not take my usual morning dose before the test;however, looking online most medical websites say its not necessary to fast. Anyone care to clarify for me please. thanks

HelloI have asked for advice previously in relation to my mum. She has been taking levo 25 for a while now. We have managed to get a new test completed and her TSH has increased quite a lot. FT3/4 at the lower end of range. She is also deficient in B12. We have been waiting a while for these so as
