Thank you for all your replies, what a lovely lot you are. I took your advice and obtained an Active B12 test through Blue Horizon, may I ask for your advice and comments again please?
HAEMATOLOGY
Active B12 66 pmol/L 25.1 - 165.0
Obviously this is within range but I believe this is not conclusive with regard to PA? I am now supplementing with sublingual Methyl B12 5000mcg and Methyl Folate 400 mcg and would welcome comments as to when I should hope to see an improvement in my symptoms?
Sorry, I also had Thyroid function tests, I know I have Hashimoto's (see Thyroglobulin result) and am on 100mcg Levothyroxine. These are my results:
ENDOCRINOLOGY THYROID PROFILE 2
TOTAL THYROXINE(T4) 106 nmol/L 59 - 154
THYROID STIMULATING HORMONE 0.76 mIU/L 0.27 - 4.2
FREE THYROXINE 19.0 pmol/l 12.0 - 22.0
FREE T3 5.0 pmol/L 3.1 - 6.8
IMMUNOLOGY THYROID ANTIBODIES
Thyroglobulin Antibody *1097.0 IU/mL 0-115(Negative) (THIS RESULT WAS IN RED)
Method used for Anti-Tg: Roche Modular
Thyroid Peroxidase Antibodies 11.9 IU/mL 0 - 34
Method used for Anti-TPO: Roche Modular
Now I come to think of it, I am a bit baffled by the high Thyroglobulin result although I know I have hashimotos. Is this "normal" because I have the disease (as that is what I assumed), or should I be worried?
