Antiparietal cells antibodies test

[kezza2shoes]

Hi,

Just had results from Antiparietal cells antibodies test and it came in at 1.8.

What does this mean? trying to get an appointment with GP asap, as I am now 4 1/2 weeks overdue my B12 jab.

My GP wants to confirm that I should be on the jabs, they have been great and I really notice the difference when I am due, these last few weeks have been a tingly, foggy blur with only episodes of palpitations to break it up.

I have decided to get a private dr look at my thyroid probs as TSH reports that I'm ok, I think my TSH test should come and live my life and tell me I'm ok

Many thanks

Kez

It means you have pernicious anaemia. I need a shot every few weeks but my useless nhs gp will only give me enough amps for 1 every 3 months so as usual this is something i take care of myself to ensure i get the right dose

The GP that 1st gave me B12 in 2006 said I should have the jabs every 12 weeks, current GP says 3 months. It's not a massive difference but those last few day feel like a long time when the symptoms return at the 10 week mark!
