PA/stomach pain
Hi all, I’m so grateful for all of your support as I’ve started down this road. Got diagnosed with PA/AIG in the fall via an endoscopy. I am on B12 injections. My stomach pain has gotten steadily worse instead of better even though I am on a very restrictive diet. Is there any reason for me to believe

Versandapo Panpharma B12 available ?
I have had 3 emails from Versandapo alerting me Panpharma is now in stock. Each time I go on their site and check it says currently out of stock ! I’ve been checking on the same day I receive the emails. Is this happening to anyone else ? I have already purchased the Pascoe brand B12 1500ug ampoules

prostap, HRT and lap
Hey everyone. I had my lap done privately last year, gyno advised he couldn’t see anything. I took the images from surgery to one of the specialists on the endo website and they have advised they can see what they think is endo on my pelvic wall and I am currently on NHS waiting for my next laparoscopy

omeprazole
so just discovered that stomach acid inhibeters(omeprazole) stop you producing b12 and can lead to restless leg! now taking b12 supplements and NO rls for 20 days. May not work for you but for 14 pounds its worth a punt. good luck

Private Endo recommendations please
I feel awful, I’m on 50mg of levo and have been for 5 years. Like many of you my TSH is only checked by the NHS and always considered “in range” In recent years when I’ve visited my GP about thyroid health, bloods are done and my thyroid gets lost in translation because I have too high Vit D and high

Serum folate 7,(3.1-20.1) completed loading dose, being retested in 8 wks, is it best to take folic acid now, or wait for re-test please?
Hi My folate is lower in range and I was discussing red cell folate test (thank you FlipperTD!)as a way of checking folate privately. I am now wondering what’s best to do if anyone has any advice please. Is it important I wait to see how b12 settles in and see what happens with folate result in 8 wks

Charlatan or science?
hi folks, I am awaiting diagnosis of Grave’s disease and during the last 3 months since my blood tests via the NHS and the waiting game to see an endocrinologist, I have been researching hyperthyroidism. The internet is FULL of people claiming there is a link between micro biome and leaky gut and Graves
