thyroid eye disease and possibly the adrenal system ........after having seen -- in my opinion -- a super consultant at moorefields hospital he actually asked if I had any info that he hadn't he would be extremely open to learn from any and all and I feel that if I can at least point him in a direction it could help the cause ........alan

It's good the the consultant at Moorfields was interested in learning more. It does make a change.

For all information on B12, the Pernicious Anaemia Society would answer your questions.

If you go to this page on the link Clutter has used it shows you all the good places to visit for info:

You could also point him towards the books - Could It Be B12? An Epidemic of Misdiagnosis (Pacholok & Stuart), and Martyn Hooper's 2 books "Pernicious Anaemia: The Forgotton Disease" and "Living With Pernicious Anaemia and Vitamin B12 Deficiency".

And get him to watch all the documentaries as well found here:

There are lots of articles on Pubmed linking autoimmune thyroid disease, PA and addisons/adrenals. He should research Polyglandular Autoimmune Syndrome (particularly type 2). If you look at this Addison's Disease article and scroll down to "Associated Diseases":
