Vitamin D Results
My latest Vitamin D result is 143. No range given. I have been taking 5000 iu for the past year (health issues including hospital stay last year.) Should I be reducing the dose now that the weather is (hopefully) getting better? Thanks for any advice.

Vitamin C babies, anyone?
Has any mothers and mothers-to-be here supplemented with high doses of vitamin C in their pregnancy? How did/has your pregnancy and/or labour go/been? A couple of weeks ago I came across stories of vitamin C babies, reporting shorter labours, robust and alert babies, no/little tears and less stretch

8 Day Trial.
Current trial 1 mg hydroxocobalamin, 1.5 mg of adenosylcobalamin, 1.5 mg of methylcobalamin. Day one. No other supplements other than 50 mg of B6 twice a day in the form or P-5-P as symptoms do not indicate a need for any other supplements. Without supplementing B6 I experience peripheral neuropathy

Needle size for Surgery injections?
Yesterday I had my 3 monthly B12 jab and was rather taken aback to be injected in the shoulder with a 21G 1 1/2 “needle which was quite painful unlike when I self inject with 25G x 1” needle. I don’t remember needles being this large in the past and wondered if this is common practice to draw from ampoule

Vegan breast-feeding and supplements
My daughter is currently breast feeding. The baby can’t tolerate dairy so my daughter, who is already vegetarian has had to cut out dairy. So she’s now vegan. I asked her if she’s supplementing b12 and she said she’s been advised to take this multi supplement. Looking at it it includes an impressive

Adding calcium in order to strengthen bones
Hi. I have Stage IV Pca and on year 3 with Eligard and Xtandi (age 59)I've had a DEXA scan and my bones are not in the best shape due to Eligard. Getting zolendronic acid every 4 months I've just had a heart scan, and it seem like one of the blood vessels are starting to calcify. The doctors want me

Duff batch of B12?
Have any self-injectors ever found their symptoms coming back big-time over a period of several weeks and wondered if they've been using a duff batch of B12? I have been self-injecting every other day for 18 months because of persistent neurological symptoms (paraspinal muscle spasm). I was doing great
