  1. For people in UK

    Good news Matrix. There are a couple other labs in the Uk (e.g biolab) where you can order tests and most of the tests are available on the national health service (which should be free), the real problem is that alot of doctors in the UK just will not use the tests available to them. My general...
  2. Low adrenals, sick euthyroid, B12 defficient

    Hi Matrix, To update, I saw the endo and he arranged some further blood tests. Turned out he just did the same blood tests over again and reported that they were all normal and that i may respond to a treatment of antidepressants, f**king pointless. I'm really disgusted at the state of...
  3. Low adrenals, sick euthyroid, B12 defficient

    I agree, I think my next stage is request a full test of all vitamins and minerals to get an understanding of what is deficient and then supplement with those i guess. What sort of things do I need to do to rebalance the GI tract other than antibiotics to combat SIBO?
  4. Low adrenals, sick euthyroid, B12 defficient

    Matrix, I paid for a private VitD test before my endo consultation next week. My results are: Total Vitamin D = 32.8 nmol/L (15-30 deficient/30.1-50 insuficiency/greater 50 adequate) Vit D3 = 30nmol/l (no range given) Vit D2 = less than 2.8 nmol So it appears that you were correct to check it...
  5. Low adrenals, sick euthyroid, B12 defficient

    Thanks, I have an appointment with an endocrinologist on 1st Nov, it's hard enough to get a referral to an endo never mind anyone else, so I will see how it goes first. Having looked into SIBO a bit more I do think that I have quite a few of the other symptoms. I'll let you know who my endo...

    What would be the best approach? Also how would I ensure adequate supplementation of vitamins and minerals going forward given that oral supplements may not be absorbed adequately, is there vitamin injections that can be regularly taken?
  8. Low adrenals, sick euthyroid, B12 defficient

    Thanks Matrix, that makes alot of sense. Do you have any experience of treating SIBO? It looks like one should treat with antibiotics to treat the bacteria and then pro-biotics to try and keep the bacteria at bay? And then there will be the lasting effects that I am dealing with now in regard...
  9. Low adrenals, sick euthyroid, B12 defficient

    Thanks for your input guys. I have asked for a MMA (urine or blood) test from my doctor but they refuse as my B12 serum level is fine. I have provided documents and print outs regarding the high level of false negatives from B12 serum tests but I am hitting my head against a brick wall trying...
  10. Low adrenals, sick euthyroid, B12 defficient

    Hi guys, I am new to the forum but have been reading and learning from here for a while now. For the last few years my health has been slowly getting worse which i put down to stress of life etc and getting older (i'm 31). My symptoms are standard for hypothyroid/adrenal fatigue/B12 deficiency...
