It’s been few weeks I started feeling the burning sensation and tingling in my feet and around ankles. It happens anytime during the day or at night. Any clue what it’s about 🙃

Diabetes is ruled out. Blood work is normal for everything.

Do you still have the pins and needles or has it been resolved? I started getting this four weeks after Covid and it worsened to stabbing nerve pain.

FYI B12 deficiency is notoriously hard to diagnose by bloodwork and most doctors are not very knowledge about it, even hematologists. Esp because serum B12 level is not a good indicator - esp if you’ve been supplementing (some B12 tests require you to be clear of any supplements for 4 months).

Sometimes it’s not the diet or intake, it’s stomach absorption issues - lack of intrinsic factor, intrinsic factor antibodies, anti-parietal cell antibodies, homocysteine, MMA, serum gastrin. Or recent viral infection, Helicobacter Pylori infection, chronic atrophic gastritis, PPI use, etc, are also factors.

If it does turn out to be B12 deficiency, it can be deadly in a few years — if you have ongoing symptoms, I do recommend you join the Pernicious Anemia and B12 Deficiency Support Group on Facebook and read through their Files section. Treatment is addressing by B12 injections (NOT sublinguals, patches, or oral supplements) that allow it to bypass the stomach and the malabsorption issues. “Trying several weeks of every other day B12 injections and seeing if you have any kind of response (more fatigue etc) / if it works” is also a valid test and one that has worked for me.

Lumbar spine issues. But yes, go see a doctor.

Most likely this one. I’ll get checked.

Do you exercise? What’s your BMI? When was your last physical?

I do. My physical was around this time last year

Do you work for Deloitte?

Family history of blood clots?

Could also be plantar fasciitis

Did you ever figure out the root cause OP?

I hate my job, but I’m staying because of the money.

I’ve been a tech consultant for 4+ years and I’m good at it and I love the company I work at, but I noticed that I get really bad anxiety anytime I start a new project. I’m not sure if it from the role or from consulting but I always feel sick to my stomach and I feel like I’m not expanding my knowledge because I’m literally surviving everyday. Please what should I do? I want to quit but I also know theirs good money in tech. Please help!

Hi everyone, I am 4 days into my IUI process. I also recently found out that my UTI was not a UTI but instead Ureaplasma. My husband also tested positive.
We are waiting to hear back from the fertility specialist but I wanted to see if anyone has had this experience, or any knowledge. I’m nervous that the antibiotics will affect my ability to conceive, but just as nervous ureaplasma will make it difficult as well. I can wait until next month and start over but I really don’t want to. Any advice

Good Morning All!
I’ve been having some mental issues lately and have no idea if it’s due to my HRT.
If I take .75 of estradiol I still have hot flashes. If I take 1.0 I feel either numb or depressed constantly.
I feel like I’m bearing this battle alone as my Physician’s seem like experimenting with dosing is my only option.
I’ve also consistently done intermittent fasting for two weeks, exercise 5x per week, and am eating better all to lose a whopping .5 lbs. SMH

Maybe this is a cultural thing, but I need outside input. My nephew just turned 18, and I got him a bottle of Four Roses. Obviously, we live in the US and he isn't 21, but I'm realistic and know he's already drinking. Plus, growing up outside the US (UK) I was drinking before the drinking age with my father and uncles. I thought of it as a coming-of-age type thing, but my sister-in-law was totally shocked and a little angry at me. Was I wrong for thinking this wasn't a big deal?

Does anyone know why I lose more weight when I eat 2000 calories vs when I eat 1200 calories? For reference, I am currently 5’7 F and 128 lbs. I cannot work out for another month due to an expiring CPA exam so I am definitely losing muscle mass.

When I calorie count, I account for every little thing such as the vegetable oils or the tbs of salt. The 1200 calories is usually an extremely large meal + fruits + soup. The 2000 calories is usually a meal from a restaurant + fruits + a sandwich.
