B2 B6
I am reading elsewhere on health unlocked that we need B2 to absorb B6 which prevents excess B6. . . . . This is conection with PD although seems appropriate for most I currently use B6 usually about 3mg along with 600/700ish B12 and I use B6 as B12 more or less cured a load of my symptoms but

Two Experiences
1)Two days ago I went wading in the lake where I open water swim. I did not measure the temperature but it was frozen 5 days prior. The pain was not as severe as it was when I waded in very cold water in 1965. There was not the relief I have experienced since 1965. The reason is I am not in as much

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.

Retested: low D & B12, high ferritin
I was hoping that treating my
vitamins
and minerals may give a different thyroid hormone picture. Iron 239ug/L (range 30-150) I am under haematology, treated for iron deficiency anaemia. Tested quarterly, it was last tested 29th March 2023 and it had risen slightly to 183ug/L (range 10-291) 61%.

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

MTX, fatigue and brain fog
Hi all.I've an annual (actually 16 months) review next week. First one since being diagnosed and I want to try and get the most out of it. I take MTX, 20mg weekly (orally) and folic acid 6 days a week. The MTX seems to be working in terms of joint pain and CRP is usually close to zero. I get mild

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

New GP is considering to give me B12 pills instead of injections - would that be the same in the long run?
Started having B12 injections two yeas ago and worked fine. Now moved to a new village and the new GP ordered blood tests to see if I should continue. Fought back and said that without the injections my B12 levels are going down. He asked me to take vitamin pills and have another blood test. If levels

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

Back to square one
My Dr checked my thyroid levels with some other blood tests without me knowing, so I had taken my T4 (50mcg) about an hour before! Based on the results, she said I was now fine and took me off the medication. I tried to argue saying it needed to be before my meds and she said that was wrong. I had always

Monitor My Health iron test - lack of ranges
I spent a bit more money on my MMH test this year as I’ve never had an iron panel done but have always had low iron indicators on a full blood test. I didn’t get complete results as ferritin failed (posting the kit back took 48 hours when it was tracked to take 24) but the results I did get, I can’
