folate vs folic acid
I’ve been searching for a post that says not to take folic acid if your folate level is low. My daughter’s folate level is 2.95 (side effect of netformin)and her b12 is only 283. Hee GP has given her folic acid and will only repeat after 1 yr! Madness. Her tsh is 0.9 and they didn’t test t4 or t3.

Migraines, headaches, and relationship to b12
I feel like I spend half my life with a headache these days 😭 There’s definitely migraine with prodrome/aura, which I suspect would be there to some degree without the PA as it’s so hormonal. Then there’s tension headaches, bad posture headaches, and a weird sort of one that feels like a sinus pressure

Advice please re B12 to supplement or not
Following covid in July I have been experiencing tingling in feet and hands. I've left it until now in the hope it would resolve and while it has lessened it is still there. I currently take 100mg t4 and 10ug t3. GP blood test results 17 August : HbA1c 34mmol/mol (20-41) TSH 1.46 mu/L (0.3-4.2)

Hi Lemon00 In reference to your migraine l found 400mg Vitamin B2 daily was a game changer for me. My migraines disappeared, I do still suffer from temple pain occasionally. l believe most of your symptoms are related to the AN. It is hard to get the medical profession to except all the symptoms

bioavailable broad spectrum multi vit?
Multivits - I know, I know, I don’t use them myself, but my partner likes them and his cheap supply from H&B has run out. If he’s going to take them it would be better if he found a decent one . He’s 60 and his health hasn’t been so good this year. He’s not diagnosed hypothyroid but his TSH has been
