Folic acid question
I've just had a thought about my folic acid. I have mild covid and my rheumy nurse told me to stop mtx for 2 weeks. I forgot to ask if I should continue taking the folic acid daily or is there no need to take it if I'm not taking mtx.Does anyone have experience of this please?

Another adjustment
Ok, so my table needed to first :-) not sure how to move it down, but please read below... First, thanks for this great community. I have benefited from lots of wisdom and experience over the past three years. Last year my endo freaked when my TSH was low. I attempted to stand up for myself, but

Hypocellular bone marrow. Can anyone tell me more?
I was diagnosed with B12 deficiency ("low serum B12") over 15 years ago when debilitating exhaustion was putting my job at risk. Doctors assumed diet related because I was usually vegan at home but still ate meat and fish two or three times a week. I am diary intolerant with eczema (but crave custard

Macrocytic Anemia?
Hi, I am posting here for my Mom. She had blood work every year with perfect results until last year in September when the Hemoglobin/RBC/Hemocrit started dropping. She never had anemia before. In March of this year MCV and MCH started going up and be higher then normal. I took her to a hematologist

Low Red Blood Cell count and GFR kidney count blamed on PMR. Is this true?
I have just had some blood test results. There are several results which need looking at but someone has added "Normal for this patient". When I have asked before PMR or Pred have been blamed. I took your advice once over breathlessness for example and the GP did further tests. Now the Red Blood

Iron & PLMD
I had an iron panel done a while back, is there any explanation or link to PLMD & the transferrin % being so high? My ferritin test from about a month ago was 200ug/l & had previously been about 250ug/l. I did start regular b12 jabs around the time of the 250 test,so that might account for the ferritin

Blood results help
Currently undiagnosed but feeling awful, sore muscles, fatigue, hoarse voice, dry hair and skin, eyebrow loss on the outer third, constipation etc. My TSH was tested in September for some GI issues which turned out to be lactose related and it was 2.9 (ref 0.5-5.5) These are my results from last week

B12 serum stains?
They come out of fabric right…right🫠 Tend to SI on my bed, and this week’s linen is a summery off white (in literal linen) that now has red blotches all over it from spilt drops of serum depot🙃🙂 this is fine Thinking of going in with a sponge and white vinegar—is that going to work well?

Does a B12 injection affect a blood test
Got my blood test tomorrow morning at 7:50 I've been off all my vitamins since the weekend but I'm over due my B12 injection, can I have it today or will it skew the results I've had 12 weeks at 25mcg and 8 weeks at 50 mcg so I really don't want to stuff it up

Low B12 and ferritin questions
Over the past year I have had frequent respiratory infections and when not ill, I am always exhausted. I often need to stay in bed on my days off recovering. Alongside the exhaustion and frequent infections I have dealt with nausea and gastric problems which I always thought were due to IBS. I faint
