1 or 2 time a day vit b12 1000 microgram???
Hello dear friends I read here some post that someone is injecting one or two time a day of vitamin b12 ampules (1000 microgram or 1 mg). Is it safe to inject such a massive b12 one or two time a day for life??? I thought that the protocol for b12 deficiency treatment is loading doses of 6 ampules during

buprenorphine -what next
I’ve been on buprenorphine for about 2 months now. I take 600 micrograms. I have also been slowly reducing from pregabalin by 25 mg every two weeks and am now on 100mg. I had nausea when I started buprenorphine but that stopped after a couple of weeks only to return. I have totally lost my appetite

Blood test results
Just had my yearly check up with full blood tests. I can access the results but will also be seeing my GP face to face (!) next week as this is part of the check up. Can you tell me what these two results mean, please? Serum Creactive protein level 7.8mg/L (normal below 5) and Mean corpus haemoglobin

Blood test results, vitamins and minerals
Clearly my GP won't be prescribing B12 or folate, but presumably the “satisfactory” Intrinsic Factor ab result means
pernicious
anaemia
as the cause of low B12 is not as likely and its okay to start supplementing now?

Eustachian tube dysfunction is it possible this is connected to b12 deficiency?
My partner has has b12 deficiency symptoms for years, only recently diagnosed. He gets a fullness in his ears, he cant pop them even with all methods ENT teach you. I was just wondering if anyone else had had these problems. Initially we thought his off balance feeling when walking was caused by this

Possible dangers of too much iron.
Iron supplementation is often advised on this forum. This article points up new research on the effect of iron on Alzheimer's. I would appreciate anyone with medical knowledge running their eye over this in case of any relevance to RLS. They do mention MS, which can be associated with RLS. Lhlklttps

Low ferritin, high iron
I recently got a bunch of lab tests done by a functional medicine doctor. I thought I had too much iron. My UIBC was lab low at 91(range 131-425), my iron was lab high at 204(range 27-159), and iron saturation was lab high at 69%(range 15-55%).But ferritin was somewhat low, though not lab low. It was

Mayo Clinic studies B12 def, are very interesting!!
Check these studies out! I printed a few copies for my medical practice Abstract Although cobalamin (vitamin B12) deficiency was described over a century ago, it is still difficult to establish the correct diagnosis and prescribe the right treatment. Symptoms related to vitamin B12 deficiency may

8 week bloodtest
Hi all, I've been on a reduced levothyroxine dose of 125mcg for the last 8 weeks and i stopped taking the iron tablets as my stomach was too painful, so for the past 7 weeks i've been using an iron patch. My dr agreed to retest my iron as i didn't want to be wasting my time and money if the patches

How much folic acid while on ED injections?
I inject b12 daily or at least every other day for over two years now. I'm lots better by now but have still slight polyneuropathy left. During this time I've experimented with different dosages of folic acid (as well as with methyl folate and folinic acid) but I'm still not sure what works best for

Euthyroid Sick Syndrome
Hi everyone, Just wondering if anyone has been diagnosed with Euthyroid Sick Syndrome or thinks they may have it? I am now beginning to think that my problems are due to this and not Hypothyroidism. Am thinking of getting a reverse T3 test but it's quite expensive.This cannot be treated with meds so

Ferritin levels
Got bloods taken last week, the GP who ordered them isn't in until Wed, but I spoke to receptionist who said all had been returned as "normal" levels. I asked her to read out my ferritin and she said it was 64. So I know this isn't "normal" for folks with RLS and I image the GP will put me on iron supplements

Results of latest trial.
When I first started doing trials I did them for 120 days, then 90. This was based on the average lifespan of a red blood cell which I no longer consider. I found over time that 30 day trials seemed effective sometimes I found the results to be definitive in 7+- days when reducing or eliminating And
