Gluten free diet
Hi all, hope you’re not suffering too much today. Just wanted to bring to your attention an article I was reading today about gluten, which you can find on google. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-celiac_gluten_sensitivity I’ve recently been trialing a gluten free diet, which has helped me considerably

Preparing for GP appt
Hello I have a GP appointment in a few weeks to discuss blood tests results and symptoms (tiredness, weight gain, low mood, pins and needles). Based on what I've read on this forum, it sounds like these symptoms and results could be indicative of hypothyroid, but because TSH is within range I'm unlikely

Blood Test Advice
I have a blood test booked for 8.40 next Monday. The form says: FBC, Ferritin, Liver function, Thyroid function, Vitamin D. At the moment I supplement with Vitamins B12, B complex, C, D, K2 and Turmeric, Selenium and Magnesium. I have stopped B complex but is there anything else I should stop before

Taking Vitamin C
This might seem a daft question but I need to increase my iron & read I should take it with 100mg of VitC. How do I take 100mg of VitC? All the tablets are 1000mg. The average tangerine is 50mg & not what I’d choose to eat at night. Do I buy a VitC powder?

I've been thinking a lot about people's misdiagnoses........
We talk a lot about the vast number of people who have been misdiagnosed, who went on to self treat, and subsequently improved their health, and their quality of life. But what about those who have received a diagnosis, and accepted it?? My GP at the time of my B12 crash wanted to diagnose me with Fibromyalgia

B supplement
Please could you advise me if it is OK to take Homocystix Plus as a B supplement? I have been taking Thorne Basic Plus and Nature's Best Vit B 12. However Vit B12 now over 500. I started flushing more and think I'm developing Rosacea . Looked online and found Niacin can be a factor in flushing. Also

Just diagnosed. Does this explain my life? Especially my recent experiences?
For as long as I can remember, I have been suffering with various levels of depression and anxiety, lack of energy, poor sleep habits and headaches.Yet both times I have come out of hospital with B12 shots, I have felt like a new man with a new brain, like nothing previous worried me as much anymore.

GGT level
Hi, I was told that in 2015 I had a fatty liver from having a scan for suspected gall stones. I wasn't told much more and no advice or follow up given. Last year I started getting pain and a kind of tight feeling on my right side just under my lowest rib. Gp did some blood tests and said nothing came

Better Understanding
I knew and expressed here that I was fearful of crashing this winter as I have since 1995 to varying degrees. I had set a marker of April 01 as a measure. I was successful although I will wait until April 01 to see it in my rear view mirror, and have a celebration although I am already celebrating. Some

advice, thoughts please, feeling rather desperate?!
hi I only got one response to my recent post which was so kind but no feedback so am trying again as I’m a bit stumped. I’d hoped going on NDT would relieve fibro symptoms and generally help me feel better, and give me more energy, but despite latest test results I don’t feel that much different. Certainly

B12 result after 6 months…
Hi, So initially in October I was diagnosed with what they suspect to be pernicious anaemia, I had a negative IF test but due to me having diabetes and no other factors which could indicate why I was so low in B12 they put it down to me having pernicious anaemia. I had 6 loading doses after which my

B12 injections
Hi,I've been diagnosed with PA since 2021. I was on loading doses, then 3 monthly. This didn't agree with me and I was exhausted so I was moved from 3 months to 6 weeks. I was still finding myself wiped after 4 weeks ish so was moved to 3 weeks. During my 3 weekly treatment I began getting facial tingling

what to ask GP
I’ve been on a low dose of Levo for about 3 years. It took ages to get up to 50mg a day as I’m really sensitive to it. Because of palpitations, tummy upsets etc I now split 50mg into two separate doses ; 25mg in morning and 25mg at night and I’ve been fine doing this since December last year. My test

Lanzoprazole and side effects
Hello, I am over 2 years past Ivor Lewis oesophagectomy and have been taking Lanzoprazole 15mg once a day, then Gavison at night. I’ve found that my folate and ferritin are low , probably caused by ppi use and wonder if anyone has managed to come off them. I know they have lots of potential bad effects

Made my decision about ablation and very interesting article
Firstly, to my surprise I have an ablation booked for April 9th. But.....after doing much reading and talking to my EP I think I am going to decline at this time. What made my mind up is the article I have attached below which I think some of you will find very interesting. It talks about the PVI and
