And some people have a MTHFR mutation whereby they need methylcobalamin B12 (instead of cyanocobalamin B12) in order for their tissues to use the B12. In those cases, the body (liver) doesn't convert the cyano into methyl.

Have you consulted with an endocrinologist? It's not only the thyroid that can cause fatigue! The adrenal glands can, too. So can MG.

Did you get your Vit. D checked?

If you say where you're located, someone here might be able to recommend a neuro for you!

What else can we help with?

I'm sorry you aren't doing well. You probably have something else going on, in addition to the MG. Hang in there and try to get doctors to help you!

I'm located in xenia, Ohio. My family doctor and i agreed to removing my nexplanon implant that i had for birth control because we noticed my overall health seemed to have gone drastically a few months ago when i had that implanted in my arm. Within a day i already noticed my energy level coming back up and hormones going back to normal which has helped with my muscles. My hormones were a mess while on that which would have me so stressed out and exhausted. Next thing you know my muscles would be a mess as well. She is suppose to call me within the week with a referel to a neurologest. She did say today the my RDW was high but my other levels were "Normal". She is going to do more blood work again next month and if its high she wants me to see a hemotogist? Anyone know of any causes for a high RDW count?
