How can you get homocysteine test on NHS
I’ve had an under active thyroid for many years and now I think may be B12 deficient too. Also have high blood pressure. I’ve been doing a lot of research recently and read about the importance of homocysteine. I had it tested privately about six years ago and it was at the “high end of normal” then

PA and oral B12 supplements
I have recently been diagnosed with PA and I’ve had an initial booster course of 6x B12 injections with a plan for 3 monthly injections for life (based, I understand, on local UK NHS protocols, or how my GP has interpreted them). I was therefore wondering if there is any benefit in taking oral B12

Advice on Progress with T3 Trial
I started my T3 trial in July this year. My Endo asked me to reduce my Levothyroxine from 75 to 25mcg and to add 2 x Liothyronine 5mcg. I made changes slowly but was alarmed at dropping to 25mcg T4 so alternated with 50/25, eventually keeping at 50 mcg after an interim Medichecks blood test. I have

Help me find a post please. Male PA member linked a journal article about his success with an innovative depression procedure.
I thought I saved it for a loved one, but can not find it. The member had a procedure done that involved brain stimulation for depression, that still existed even with b12 supplementation. And he had an article written about how successful the procedure was for him I am on Thyroid UK as well so he

Three years in
Today three years ago I walked into a emergency room. I could only walk 60 yards without resting. I had to stop driving 6 times during a 40 minute drive. Luckily I was admitted and luckily my B12 was finally tested and was <150 which is the lowest level that this particular lab tests for. I started

B12 help
Following on from previous post I have an under active thyroid (Hashimoto’s) and my bloods from October 2021 was MCH 32.8 (27-32) and B12 was 379 (197-771). I read online the MCH this high was macrocytic anaemia but my endo didn’t tell me that. I have been supplementing B complex and sometimes B12

Having trouble ordering b12 as there is apparently a shortage in Australia. Help!!
I am in New Zealand but ordered my B12 from Australia. Without warning, I have just discovered there is a shortage that may go on to as far off as March next year. I am really stressed. Can anyone help with alternatives? I was told Germany did not send to Australia and wondered if NZ was the same. Thanks
