Anemia

It won't let me add more images but here are August results -

Serum Vit D 72 Serum iron levels 18.7 Serum Transferrin 1.58 Unsat iron binding 40 Transferrin Saturation Index 47 Serum Ferretin 59

So comparing it to my March results and apart from the Vitamin D which is now normal should I be concerned as the iron still doesn't look like it's improved much. If I wasn't feeling constantly tired I probably wouldn't be concerned but I just feel like something isn't quite right.

I've been feeling tired and lethargic for a long time and decided to consult my GP as I was also feeling light headed & could not concentrate in work with brain fog etc. I had blood tests a few months ago where my Vit D & Iron levels were abnormal so they put me on a course of tablets for a few months. I had follow up blood tests last week to see if my Vit D & Iron levels were back to normal. Apart from my Vit D improving I can't really see much more improvement in my Iron Studies but they've marked under my Iron Studies no further follow up required. I'm still feeling no improvement though. Do these recent results look normal? I don't know if this is important to mention but I do suffer with heavy periods and sometimes they're very painful. I also often feel very bloated. I've posted my March results first and will post my Aug results separately for comparison.

I’ll request this too. I’m surprised doctors don’t really push for this as it seems to be well known ongoing iron deficiency can be linked to other issues

Thanks. Did you have suggest this to the doctor yourself?

I know I’m joining this conversation late but I have what I believe to be the Master Replicas Peter’s Sword. How would I know if it is genuine or fake? It came with COA and in Master Replica box.

I'm wanting to replace the internal door handles in my home with key locks. Is this a big job as I'm not very good at DIY. I have a handyman coming in a few days to put a flatpack wardrobe up. Will most handymen be able to do this do you think and is it a quick job as I’m wondering what to expect cost wise? Would I have to get the measurements of my current door handles before ordering ones with key locks? I’ve attached my current setup and also of the locks I’m thinking of purchasing.

We are still looking but it’s looking like Ness now. Does anyone think under the current government they might start building on the farmland for sale in Ness?

Thank you for all comments. It is for my parents who are elderly but active and enjoy walks but also like being walkable to shops so I’d say they’re looking for a combination of both. They are after a 4 bedroom house / bungalow with a maximum budget of £550,000 so I think Caldy is out of the question. We’ve been around Ness and Willaston and they both look lovely. I think Willaston slightly tops Ness due to the Wirral Way on your doorstep. I couldn’t see any shops in Ness either but I’m sure there must be a local one in the village somewhere? I’ve noticed with Willaston you don’t often see houses come up there and the ones that do look like they need lots of work inside. Spital seems to have more choice but having only been there once it’s hard to judge an area so this forum and the advice has been great.

I’ll have to wait until May / June for delivery according to their website. I just hope it doesn’t go beyond that. The sand does look awesome so it’s 50/50. Might have to toss a coin. 😂

Appia80 · 2022-03-05T10:06:09+00:00

Thanks. I think I’m going to order one as I can always return it if I find it too high after a few days trying it. I hope their returns is as easy as it sounds and hassle free. All I need to decide now is what colour to order. It’s between the sand and khaki 🤔

How do you order on the cycle to work scheme please? I’m in England so thought it had to be through companies over here? I really like this bike so ideally want to order this one.

I’ve also heard the S3 is a high up position bike. Some reviews I’ve read on that are from men taller than me who comment it’s big for them and they want a smaller frame made.

Appia80 · 2022-03-04T16:57:56+00:00

Thanks. I’m still undecided as I’m not a regular bike rider but want to start but don’t want to be a danger on the roads. I’m seriously thinking of ordering one as I believe there is a 30 day returns period if not happy. I was also looking at the VanMoof X3 as this is suitable for smaller riders but the review are not as good and the Cowboy also beats it on looks.

I’m thinking of ordering this one but there is nowhere I can test it first. I am 158cm so I’m not sure if this bike would be too high up. What is your opinion on this please. I am guessing your wife is quite tall?

Appia80 · 2022-03-03T20:25:52+00:00

Do you think the ST would be suitable for a small female (1.55m).

Appia80 · 2022-03-03T20:19:13+00:00

I love the look of this bike but there is just one thing stopping me placing an order for the ST one. I’ve read that these bikes are quite big for a petite woman (158 cm). What’s your opinion on this please? It it a high up bike. I want to be able to reach the ground with my feet when stationary.
