Do you take B12? Have you had that measured recently?
Low B12 impacts the nerves quite a bit.
Hi mrsD saviour once again, I don't take B12 I'm afraid, being unemployed and trying to find the money for my mortgage I'm afraid there is nothing left to buy supplements.

I take it the MCV test wiill be done when they do a Full Blood Count, if that is the case that was the last tests I got done and they also do a FBC in hospital when I get my IVIG treatment, thanks again.

PS how are wheezie and maya?
