urge to urinate, with pink in pee
Had an iron infusion and started B12 injections EOD a week ago, and today have strange sensation in bladder and sudden urge to pee, and it was pink. I have read that extra b12 can cause this. What are peoples experiences. I hope it is just excess B12 and nothing more sinister.

11yo latest results
Hello All, Here are my daughters latest results, I’m still battling with GP plus NHS consultants to get anywhere. She has only been off any B12/folate for 5 weeks (she does eat B12 fortified foods) but has been taking iron. Her medical history is low platelets but she obviously also has hashimotos.

New (to me) symptom of severe iron deficiency
I'd never heard of this before and thought it might be useful to somebody... People who are severely iron deficient can have the whites of their eyes (the "sclera") develop a blue tinge. https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/Blue-sclera-secondary-to-severe-iron-deficiency-Hassen-Chirurgi/0ae45491752fa575014a5dce5588c7acdcd2f4a7

Blood Test Results Critique Please
Hi, just got my test results back. Would those who have more blood test result interpreting experience than I please comment on them. I asked for full blood count and iron panel, do these tests align with that request? I asked that B12 be excluded as I SI EOD. I take a magnesium supplement at 300mg,

Blood test results advice since starting T3
Just got my medichecks results through. Tests taken pre 9am, fasted with delayed T4 and split T3 dose as per protcol. To recap, I added 1 x 5mcg T3 for the first time about 8 weeks ago. Endo told me to reduce my thyroxine from 125 x 6/100x1 . I didnt do this, but reduced half way and have been taking

Breathing and standing!
Hello. A disparate couple of questions for you with longer term experience of PV please? I'm having a slightly uncomfortable breathing symptom. Have had it before but it goes after a few days/weeks and doesn't stop me exercising; it's just unpleasant. Previously thought it was due to low ferritin

Using turmeric to lower high ferritin
These are my latest and I’m concerned about high ferritin. It’s been over range at least two years since taking high doses of liquid ionic iron for very low ferritin. Sometimes it’s significantly lower than this but always over, lately Buddy’s post this morning about high dose turmeric piqued my interest

11yo daughters latest results
Hello All, Here are my daughters latest results. She has been off any B12/folate for 5 weeks but has been taking iron. Her medical history is low platelets but she obviously has hashimotos. Really low FT4 but high FT3 (body flogging itself?), very bizarre. Symptoms: tiredness, lack of stamina, breathlessness

Have been on Hydrea 2x500 a day. Have been feeling very ordinary of late… overwhelming fatigue, joint pain, the bloating

half life T3 in NDT
I've read over a period of time that T3 has half-life of anywhere from 2-2.5 days. I have, always, assumed (bad thing!) that was for synthetic T3. Anyone know, if that time-frame is applicable to dessicated T3? My FT3 shot up from 2.7 in late Feb. to 3.85 2 weeks ago. I had increased dose from97.5

T3 starting dose too high?
Hi all, looking for some advice. Have had hashi's for 3 years and my GP has had me undermedicated for all of that time (25mg Levo rising to 50mg after about 1. years and only 7 weeks ago he allowed me to increase to 75mg at weekends and 50mg during the week). My results in February were: FT4: 14.6

Partners ALP gradually increasing.
Hi all, My partner is in the interim of moving to NHS after being diagnosed with liver disease on private . He has hemochromatosis and the disease from this.
