What vitamin deficiency causes fatigue?
I had a blood test for anemia to see why i am tired but i do not have anemia. is there any other vitamin deficiency that causes fatigue?
Can a doctors take my blood test to see if iam lacking in any vitamins?
If iam not eating properly and lacking vitamins can a doctor take a blood test to see if i could be eating more healthy or is that wasting a doctors time?
Its not a waste of time. If your lacking in vitamins and you eat junk food all the time your end up sick.
I dont even know if doctors do those tests
Can I take my blood pressure meds and supplements before my Cholesterol test?
I have heard that one should not eat anything 8 to 12 hours prior to giving blood to check your Cholesterol levels and receiving an accurate reading. But does that include medications? Every morning I take my Blood Pressure medication along with a Vitamin D Pill, a multivitamin, and a Fish Oil Capsule. Should I NOT take any of these drugs until after my blood test, or is it ok for me to take them prior?
What is the normal blood pressure and heart rate for a 15 year old girl?
i am 15 i am 5'2" and weigh 100 lbs. i just took my blood pressure and it said 102/82 with a heart rate of 72. is it high or low. i'm concerned because i've been having continuous dizziness spells and headaches and today i was a little bit nauseous. i got a blood test today but im pretty worried. my doctor said i probably have anemia but i'm afraid it could be something worse.
What vitamins should I take? (Details inside)?
I'm vegetarian, and I also don't eat dairy products or soy products as I am intolerant to them. I eat some sheeps' products (fetta cheese and occasionally yoghurt), plus lots of legumes. When I got a blood test a while ago I had low iron stores, and I've only had my period about 3 times since I first got it about two years ago. What vitamins do you think I should be taking?
I was just diagnosed with with Factor 5 Leiden and MTHFR, anyone else have this?
After having 2 m/c's my doctor ordered some blood test. I went in to speak with him yesterday and he told me that i have Factor 5 Leiden and MTHFR. He said i will need to start taking extra Folic Acid and baby asprin everyday. I am already taking a prenatal vitamin and vitamin d. I will also have to have shots everyday through out my pregnancy so i don't get blood clots and for 6 weeks after the baby is born. He said that the Factor 5 Leiden is genetic so i got it from 1 of my parents. He also said i can never take birth control pill. He also said this is common and a lot of women have this, 1 in 8. Is there anyone else who has this? Will i still be able to have a healthy baby? I am kind of scared and i have been trying to research about this so any info or advice would help! Thanks!
Thank you so much for being so positive for me! I am scared to death about this. The doctor said that taking the extra folic acid and baby asprin should help a lot! I also won't have to start the shots until about 8 weeks of pregnancy. He said as soon as we see the heartbeat we can start the shots. So we are taking December off to relax and we are going to start TTC in January! How is Mia doing?
sick with the unknown(blood test included)?
so i've been sick since november.
november through january was the worse. also end of february through middle of march. i would constantly be throwing up and having horrible stomach pains. continuously dizzy and faint feeling. i constantly needed water, i always felt dehydrated. i would throw up every single day. all the time in the morning and most every time i used the bathroom. i lost my appetite significantly.
if i wasn't at the peak of the sickness, i am just having bad stomach pains and feeling faint.
i've also been getting a lot of ulcers in my mouth that typically last only 3-4 days. i brush my teeth every day, so i don't see why i am getting these sores. its not like i have herpes or anything.
i've had a blood test.
and everything was perfect except a few things;
high iron(which is really unusual cause i've always had really low iron my whole life)
low carbon dioxide
big red blood cells.
low b12 and folic acid
high tsh levels(only 1 of the 5 thyroid tests are abnormal)
low electrolytes.
soooo, yeah. they put me on vitamins and stuff, but its barely helping.
i'm also on an antibiotic. i've been on it since march.
i'm coming back to a peak of the sickness.
i honestly feel like i'm dying.
the doctors want to wait another year to do another blood test and see how things are doing.
any ideas?
What condition are the doctors checking for?
Im 14 my symptoms are tiredness, dizzyness, and urinating alot.
i got a blood test last monday that checked for diabetis and other things i dont know what though but they all came back negative apart from one and so they took more blood and told me they were checking vitamin levels. on the sheet they wrote folic acid and b12 or bh12 something like that.
What does that mean theyre actually checking for?????
Thanks xox
yea i thought anemia first but i should have mentioned em it came back negative
what condition is folic acid or b12 deficency?
Could i be anemic been feeling really rough for 6-7 wks, dizzy to the point i cant walk down the rd ?
I have just been to my gp he has put me on folic acid as my vitamin b is low ? What is this and could this be making feel so low, rough, very dizzy and sometimes slow ?
Just to add my gp has put me on folic acid 5mg for a mth will these help with my symptoms ? And when will i start to feel normal again ?
I had a blood test and the Gp noticed my vitamin b was low, this is why im on folic acid.
am 17 weeks pregnant and i need an answer from pregnant ladies with experience please?
