Vitamin b12/Folate deficiency

Endoscopy frequency
I had an endoscopy when first diagnosed with PA and benign polyps were found. That was nearly 7 years ago; does anyone know if this test should be done regularly? Also, I have had symptoms recently that worry me a bit but they could be a result of the tail end of a lingering virus. I know that PA increases

Blood work
I recently got my blood tested so I could check for ferritin levels and my ferritin was at 329. I had gotten my blood test a year ago when I first saw the doctor for RLS but they’d didn't test ferritin levels at that time. My doctor just messaged me about my new results and said my results showed elevation

Hello
I was first diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer in 2001 I had a mastectomy with reconstructive surgery followed by chemo and radiation. Following that I was put on Tamoxifen Arimidex and Taxol.

Panpharma B12 Depot out of stock at Apohealth - now what do I do?
Hi I made the mistake of ordering Panpharma Vitamin B12 from Apohealth recently but when it came the box looked a bit different and I realised I'd not ordered the "depot" version. I had cobalamin not hydroxy. So, annoyed with myself, I sent them back. I kept forgetting to reorder. Came to do it

Urologist recommendation at Johns Hopkins
Hello All, Many thanks for all the great advice and support on this great site. It encouraged me to be less stressed out and research more to understand this disease. My first biopsy indicated Gleeson 6 in one core out of 12. The second opinion at Johns Hopkins was not conclusive with the following

The words this week I want to define are

Alkaline phosphatase (ALP)
is an enzyme that is released by the bile ducts cells ( among other organs). The release of ALP is a marker of stress or injury. So the more injury or stress to the bile duct cells, the higher

What now, totally lost and scared
I was all ready to start self injecting B12 having done much research and received helpful advice on here, received supplies and got my first jab done at a clinic. I doubted my GP would consider injections as my total serum B12 was 747ng/L (200-900) 3 months ago so decided to go this alone. Very low

silicolgel
Has anyone used silicolgel for IBS? I’ve seen adverts and wonder if it’s worth giving it a try. I have stomach pains, flatulance, urgency to go problems. I know some of it is caused by food and a lot of it is anxiety related.

Vitamin D and Anemia: Insights into an Emerging Association
Found an interesting study. The conclusion sold it for me. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4659411/ CONCLUSION Vitamin D is associated with anemia in various study populations and recent evidence suggests that the association may differ by race and is likely specific to anemia of inflammation

Where do I go from here?
I've struggled with anxiety and panic attacks and depression since I was 4 years old. I thought I was doing better and then this week I started having unprovoked panic attacks again. I lost my ability to speak for 24 hours. It was terrifying. Should I look into IOP or PHP? Is outpatient just not enough
