Advice on ‘normal’ test results
Hi I’ve recently joined and wanted some guidance on blood tests that my doctors are saying need no action. I went struggling with neck pain and neurological symptoms and they ordered full bloods. In the last two years I’ve gained a huge amount of weight, my face is puffy, and I’ve struggled with running

Sudden recent darkness under eyes
Hey, all, I think I know that a lot of people have dark area around their eyes just as part of their normal selves. But I have never had any rings under my eyes. But in the last couple days, have definitely noticed slightly dark rings under my eyes. I am thinking this is more likely a nutrient issue

20 hours of non-injecting
Having completed a two week trial I did not inject until my stuffy head came back. It was then three days of recovery but nothing severe. I thought that I might be experiencing shortness of breath at about 6 hours but nothing definitive. I woke up at 11 am with my stuffy head and injected and went

low folic acid
Hi all, I’ve been prescribed 5mg of folic acid for 3 months, i have Graves disease and am on Carb 20mg a day. My b12 was 536 pg/mL on last test but doctor didn’t say how low folic acid was! She also said my cortisol level was above range but only slightly but couldn’t advise as was down to the Endo doc

What level is normal after B12 injections
First post after being diagnosed with very low B12 (67). I am in the UK and had the course of six injections within two weeks 12 weeks ago. My level of B12 has just been tested and is 360 but I have no idea whether this would be normal at this stage? I am debating whether to have another injection or

Update on my partner
Just wanted to say thank you to everyone. We are 4 weeks into EOD injections a local pharmacist showed me how to inject my partner and iv been doing them for him. Originally using panpharma but it was sold out so have just started with pascoe 1500. Much easier to draw up and inject and apparently no

Side effects of Adderall XR
Has anyone else developed a sore throat or cough on Adderall XR? If so does regular Adderall have the same effect.

Please help me understand advanced thyroid test results
I’m returning here after following advice to get my mum a full thyroid check via medichecks as her GP had dismissed her previously marginal results. She is switching to a new surgery and we are hoping she will be taken more seriously, following these additional test results. I’m hoping someone can

Schilling Test -or something else ?
I recently found this out: Seventeen years ago, my cousin was found to have B12 deficiency. She would have been in her early 30s then - and was told that PA was unlikely at that young age. They tested her. From what she has told me, it sounds as if she was given the Schilling test - as she remembers
