B12 - advice on injections please
Hi, can anyone tell me if there is a reason you should have Hydroxycobalbumin rather than Methylcobalbumin form of B12 injected..? Hydroxycobalbumin is the precursor of the other with Methylcovalbumin being the active form (from what I can tell) and both seem to be available in the UK for injection.

First BMD in 8 years
I got a BMD and have been considering echolyte in the year ahead to inform my numbers with more information. I wonder what some of your concerns for me might be as I debate medication or no medication. I am an active 68 year old woman. I walked 920 miles in 8 weeks in a wellness competition. I am

ET JAK2+ - Could this be progressing and how do I obtain more information/support?
I've have had several consultants (it seems that heamatology has been a revolving door one in one out for years at my hospital) since my diagnosis and I feel like I am getting nowhere. My background is that I was diagnosed ET Jak2+ 10 years ago, after a lengthy battle with Drs over symptoms - they kept

Does this look more Euthyroid and less central hypo now?
Hello everyone, This is my 4th thyroid test (all testing advice adhered to, tests between 9.00-9.40am) over the last 6 months since joining HU and asking for advice. It looks to me like T4 has started to raise. I've listed below all 4 tests for comparison. It's now 47% through the range which seems

Wits end
I need some advice please. I am currently on 300mg of pregabalin and one codeine tablet a day but this has stopped working. I struggle to get to sleep and when I do I am woken after 1 - 2 hours with restless legs and sometimes arms. I am at my wits end with exhaustion. I had a full blood count recently

Lab Cut Backs (blood testing)!
I've read on here numerous times about people being refused T3 tests because "we're not allowed to test that any more" etc etc. Clearly appalling when trying to get a full picture of what's going on with your thyroid. I've just spoken to the GP about some other blood tests I'm having done tomorrow (

Musings on stress relievers – I know what might help to alleviate stress, but why don’t I do them?
Spoiler alert: This post is REALLY long! Stress seems to be a biggie for most of us in this day and age. Part of the human condition in general it would appear (thanks cave dwelling ancestors!) and also more specifically when dealing with PMR/GCA. As PMRpro and others often mention, it is frequently

Hashimoto's TSH reducing with VitD and potential lactose intolerance

Understanding Thyroid Test Results
This is the first time I have posted on this site. I have had hypothyroidism for 17 years now and had yearly blood tests. I must admit I have never understood what the result has meant other than the GP saying it's satisfactory. My recent test was Serum TSH level 2.14 mu/1. This means nothing to me and

Questions for Endocrinologist
Today is the day, I am finally seeing an endocrinologist. Any suggestions of things to ask? Trying to be optimistic about the appointment but quietly cautious. Below are the questions I have so far: - FT3 measurement to ensure adequate conversion - Pregnancy monitoring and appropriate FT4 and TSH levels

Vitamin D and AF
This is from Chat GPT, what do you think? fact checked on google and other sites. Vitamin D has been studied extensively for its potential impact on heart health, particularly its relationship with atrial fibrillation (AF). The findings are somewhat mixed, but several key points emerge from recent

Should I see an endocrinologist ?and if so can anyone recommend a good one I'm ased in South wales but willing to travel.
Hi allSo I've been publishing my results for many weeks now and have had fantastic advice from this page. Following on from my private blood test which I've attached, I booked to see a Gp but I tried a different one as I've been seeing the same one for 18 months. Well I feel absolutely deflated. I've

advice for teenage son with ADHD
He is taking a non-stimulant medication called Qelbree along with Accenture
vitamins
. I don't see him "progressing" the way I would like and am trying to figure out what else we can do for him.

Post-private GP update
Evening. A few people asked me to post an update following on from my visit to a private GP today. Well, it certainly wasn’t what I’d expected, which is to say I hadn’t expected much to happen other than another another blood test being needed and possibly a plan of action. What actually happened

Is going gluten free worth it and achievable?
Rice has a very high GI and is terrible for blood sugar and removing wholewheat would take tonnes of B
vitamins
out of my diet I’m stuck for what to eat if I remove gluten. Am I over thinking it? Is it really worth it and is it really realistic?

warning re gastroscopy and gastrografin for ME/CFS sufferers . Plus neuropathy ?
I saw a very nice colorectal surgeon who arranged a CT colonography - as I thought this would be physically less demanding than a full colonoscopy. Two days after the scan I spent the whole day throwing up violently. You can get a ‘rare’ delayed reaction to Gastrografin, the iodine contrast medium.

Elderly mum exhausted, overweight, unmotivated, yellow tinge skin on sides of face
Hello, I'm really struggling trying to get the GP to sort my mum out. She's nearly 88yrs old and in the last few years has put on an excessive amount of weight, she was a size 12, now she is almost a 20! She is absolutely exhausted, just says she has no energy at all and barely gets dressed each day
