Back pain
Hi everyone, I just wondered if you can get increased severe back pain with B12 deficiency? I have Fibromyalgia so I'm in a lot of pain anyway and my doctor says the increased pain at certain times is just my Fibro. But I'm not so sure. I had loading doses at the beginning of February, then by mid April

Gummies - BE CAREFUL
There is a huge range of substances now available in the form of gummies. And gummies are made to taste nice. And this disguises that they contain active ingredients with serious effects. They themselves seem entirely innocuous. Possibly there is more concern over any sugars and sweeteners than what

anyone help with article that states that it is not alright to prescribe different doses of Liothyronine on alternate days?
I am on T3 and Levo 75mcg. but I feel hypo since I was taken off 10mcg T3 daily and put onto T3 at 10mcg /5mcg on alternate days Has anyone a reference regarding this unorthodox prescribing of T3 in split different doses I can send to him to support my case against this splitting of the T3 like

Supplements before blood test?

B12 5mg, is it worth it?
Hi, I have b12 injections and have been offered ampoules of 1mls at 5mg. Has anyone had any experience with these, does it give you a mega boost so I wouldn't have to have as many 1mg injections? Thanks in advance for any advice

medichecks results different from GP
I did a home test back in. March in order to get some information other than the GP test who wanted to reduce my Levo and put me on Statins. I take 100mcg daily and feel well on this dosage, when I was on 75mcg, I felt lethargic and not myself. The new results are CRP HS. 1.510 mg/L. (Range < 3
