Gastric parietal cell antibodies OR IFAB? Do I need both??
Hi there, I tested negative for GPCA, but I haven't done IFAB. Having done GPCA, is that enough? Should I also do IFAB? I am on eod si injections, but for my peace of mind and for my GP to stop upsetting me/scaring me with their lack of b12 knowledge. I'd really like to at least TRY for a confirmatory

Is it worth doing pernicious anemia test with active B12 of 68?
I'm working on getting my levels of B12, folate, ferritin and D up to ideal levels, if I can, for my thyroid. I recently got a B12 result from monitor my health of 68 pmol/L (range 38-210). I have read that you can still have B12 deficiency even if your B12 is around my level (I heard over 70 is needed

Good news on memory following B12 treatment
Hi, some of the regular posters may remember me posting in absolute despair last autumn about my husband’s cognitive issues and extreme memory loss. I’m now posting an update in case it helps anyone else in his position. In summary he had experienced symptoms over a couple of decades since he was twenty

Update on Weaning off of Pramipexole
Hello Everyone, I am posting in case this might be helpful to those going through getting off Pramipexole (PRAM) or thinking about it. I posted last Sunday about not feeling comfortable reducing the PRAM, but through encouragement on this site, I took the deep dive. I was taking .25 for about 5 years

Elderly relative ignoring my advice re B12.
I wonder if others on this forum have a similar problem and can help. My MIL is 91 and has some symptoms of B12D, Which could be put down to 'old age' but I'm beginning to wonder if a lot of 'old age' is really B12D. We have repeatedly told her about the importance of B12 and how many older people

Silent Reflux and B12 Deficiency- Any Link?
Hello! I was diagnosed with low B12 following a blood test in December last year, on injections but only had 3 of the 6 loading doses then was moved on to one every three months due to severe side effects that worried my GP. Had my first of the 3 monthly ones a few weeks ago and all went well. I saw

Polyneuropathy.
I treat my polyneuropathy with B6 and B12. GracePV shared their experience with B6, B12 nd B1. This inspired me to revisit my self treatment of my polyneuropathy. I came across information about Benfotiamine which is similar to Thiamine Hydrochloride and Thiamine Nitrate. There are indications

hi I’ve been on prostap now for 17 months, I started feeling not as well on it about four months ago, low mood again, bag fatigue, cystic acne around my mouth, and my b12 and folate levels are low, but also it has raised my blood sugars, has anyone else had this?

Update #5: Back to front
I personally have a genetic need for
vitamin
C
- adrenals are the most
vitamin
C
-dense organs of the body, so I would have likely always had a weakness in adrenals. So, I have begun trying hydrocortisone (HC).

Hi Community Fam, Philly can’t seem to stay stable with the sunshine! I thought I was living in a tropical rain forest for almost two weeks!! Feeling so tired and “wiped out” Neuro app, is the 24th of this month; can’t wait! I actually want a MRI to make sure I’m stable and nothing new since a year ago
