Glenmark Levothyroxine
Whilst we saw their levothyroxine withdrawn last year, I just saw something that made me wonder if it is coming back. The dm+d is a database of all medicines. Much else in the NHS uses the dm+d data as a starting point. It is a legal requirement for new medicines to be added to dm+d within something

Vitamin D, Folate but not B12?
Not been about much lately due to getting busy with the new service I set up, so I hope everyone is well. A few will remember the hassle I had around 18 months ago getting my daughter's GP to get her 'Active' B12 checked, it never happened. She's continued to struggle feeling tired etc etc. Her new

Below range Active B12, Increasing serum B12, Low folate
Hi My health board (in Scotland) doesn’t use the Active B12 test so they are unwilling to accept the Medichecks test I had done which showed a slightly below range result - 36pmol (37.5 - 188) They have retested my serum B12 and folate: Serum B12 315ng/L (187-883) Folate 2.7 (3-20) My serum

elevated liver enzymes
Does anyone else have experience of raised liver enzymes whilst takin steroids? My recent blood test showed a GGT ( gamma gluts ultrasound transferease) reading of 340. A normal reading should be under 30. It has not been elevated in former blood tests. I am taking 12 mgs defazacort per day. Equivalent

They still try to say that they don’t know it’s
pernicious
anaemia
and won’t prescribe injections, one doctor today tried to suggest I had a trapped nerve in my spine…literally feel like I’m at a wall.

Help please to understand my recent tests and what supplements I should be taking.
Recent blood tests following increase 8 weeks ago of levothyroxine to 100mcg daily from 100mcg 3 x a week, 50mcg 4 x a week. Could someone please help me to determine what supplements I should be taking. GP has suggested 1000 units of Vit d. I think my ferritin and possibly folate looks low also.

Post stent operation recovery
I don't want to go vegetarian, because I already suffer from
pernicious
anaemia
which would only make my health issues worse. I am sorry for the long post, but I just want to go back to the happy life I had before the heart operation, but I can't understand why I now feel so sick?

Are my iron levels ok?
Hi. At last I have managed to get a blood test done for iron levels. Could you, Sue Johnson, please comment on them? I feel the ferritin is quite high, which should be good, but am not sure about the other results. Ferritin: 176.5. Ug/ L 10.0-291.0 Serum Iron 16.1. Umol/L. 9.0-30.4 Transferrin

Low Folate

Hydroxocobalamin supplies.
It looks as though the new owners of Panpharma are now concentrating on selling by repackaging their B12 for local sales. In UK its Accord Healthcare. This is probably why we cannot get it from German pharmacies. I cannot tolerate having my vital amine supplies threatened so I have looked elsewhere.

Reasonable Adjustment and wellbeing at work
For anyone else struggling in the workplace with hypothyroidism and multiple symptoms. I realise I’ve been very lucky, I do worry about being labelled but my only other option would be to reduce my hours which I can’t afford. I’m a teacher in an FE college, almost full time (0.92). A couple of weeks
