I misread the information given. My bad. I though it was implying that the vaccinations were causing the gene mutations. No surprise there at the moment; again, cognitive function and pretty awful right now. I'll have to go back and re-read for clarification when I'm less disoriented.
I'm aware of the function of vaccines and the origins of mutations both genetic and environmental (radiation/chemo in cancer treatment as you've mentioned, or UV radiation resulting in skin cancer. Grandfather worked in the coal mines back in the day and developed... lymphoma.., I believe, from chemical exposure). Wasn't aware of the specific drugs that were mutagenic, but I remember hearing it in genetics last semester when covering genetic mutations related to specific forms of cancer. The Philadelphia Chromosome and... agh, something else. Anyway, the professor went on a mini-tangent about cancer drugs also causing mutations when covering proto-oncogenes and oncogenes. I believe they tested B12 levels and they were normal. I'd have to go back and take a look at the labs to know for sure, but I know that folic acid was low at one point. That was mentioned in one of the articles I'd taken a look at. The iron didn't start dropping until I was 17 when my gall bladder was removed, and it didn't get bad until I was 18 or 19. That's when they found the PCOS. Iron infusions last summer at 20. Presumed to be related to that given 3-12 weeks of female hell every two or three months. Was not nice. Again, thank you for the information. Since I've switched from microbiology to psychology, I've missed the conversations regarding the science behind things. Even if my comprehension is a little low at the present time, I still enjoy it. :33 |

I think you need to get your B12 result. The lab ranges go way down still to 200 pg/ml. The new low is now 400pg/ml.
Here is my B12 thread with links you can read: STICKY - The Vitamin B12 Thread: This link at the beginning page of that thread discusses this serious oversight about B12... a doctor who almost died because of it: Diagnosing and Treating Vitamin B12 Deficiency - YouTube I only am disappointed that the video does not go into detail about methylcobalamin. Otherwise it is a very good resource. Vitamin B12 Deficiency - American Family Physician This is a medical site --over a decade old now, for doctors and nurses. You have an anemia...that is one clue to what is going on with you perhaps.

Hi Jessie My moniker is bluesfan because I love blues music - but I did make it to St Louis one time on a trip across the States in 1985 and really liked the vibe of the city in the short time I was there. Re your mention of having had the HPV vaccine - there have been some documented adverse reactions to the Gardasil brand HPV vaccine - CFS, GBS, Neuropathy and other neurophysiological disruptions. It may be worth looking into given your previous neuro diagnoses: ie that may have made you more susceptible to an adverse reaction. Here's a link to a documentary that screened last year in NZ: Cause or coincidence? | TVShows | Newshub MrsD suggestions re B12 deficiency and anemia are still worth following up and discussing with your neuro - but as she says the ranges are wrong - my doctors were still telling me my test results were normal when they dropped to 228 pg/ml, even though I had multiple symptoms of deficiency. All the best for your neuro appt. |
