Help with blood results please
My Daughter has just had some blood results and I would be grateful if you could advise on them. I know I should be able to help having had a TT nearly 20 years ago and I have previously received invaluable help from members. But my cognitive abilities have declined and I cannot even remember how to

B12 & Folic Acid and Anxiety
I have suffered with anxiety and panic for a long time but since my loading doses of hydroxocobalamin and folic acid my anxiety and panic are unbearable. I just wondered if anyone experienced this and then started feeling better? I'm nervous to inject further and wondered if I'd be better waiting 2-3

neuropathy source
hi all, Does anyone else on here have Sjögren’s as well as PA? I am experiencing constant tingling and occasional burning/numbness in my fingers and toes.

Gastritis and B12 deficiency
Good morning all you lovely people. Does anybody have gastritis as their root cause of B12D? I was hospitalised in 2009 with gastritis and I now believe that this was the beginning of my problems, with a Naproxen prescription and high stress levels in 2023 really exacerbating things in my stomach to

covid recovery
hi all, Hubby had cold symptoms last week and tested positive, I felt ok at the time but had a faint line. Roll on 6 days I’ve had the all over aches, hot and cold sweats, pain in my throat, unbelievable sneezing and runny nose, a bit of a cough but not much. Most of that has gone except for that familiar

How long do reserves last?
I stopped self injecting Dec2021 as my level was way over the top score in my blood test. I was OK until the last few months. Does this mean my reserves are used up, as I have been sleeping 12 hours a night and my feet have got more numb. My level was OK last year. I haven't been tested for B12 since

Hi, this is my story
I broke my foot following a fall off a high kerb in August 2021 and should have been referred for a DEXA scan by the minor injuries unit who treated this, but wasn't until I asked my GP for one, following a tip off from a friend who knew that that is NHS guidance. Following the DEXA scan and recommendation

B12 how much and how often
I’ve been struggling with PA for 2 and 1/2 years. No one would listen. Finally from Israel I was advised to get the Intrinsic Factor Antibody Blood Test and the Parietal Cell Antibody Blood Test. Pernicious Anemia. I have to take a shot of Methylcobalamin daily. The Israelis recommend taking a shot
