Looks like I won’t be joining this noble group.
Tests came back ok, I’m a carrier but I don’t have it.
Ferritin levels were 103.

All other bloods spot on. I’m a picture of health.

You would have been in fine company but I’m glad you got a clean report, mate.

Good work Fagan, keep it up

93

Cheers Fran - might finally be getting on top of this fucking thing.

94

Think it’s time I took the test. :eek:

95

I fucking hate these haemochromotosis wannabes.

96

I hope that is all I am.

Serious issue with joint pain in my hands & wrists which is escalating from moderate pain ( last 5/6 years ) to pretty much constant discomfort.

Have you tried cannabis as a pain reliever?

98

Yes, it works wonderfully.

99

a lot of these chronic health issues can be helped a lot with diet - can be hit and miss as to what works for you

Get on iherb.com and buy some high quality fish oils - Carlssons etc
Also buy l-arginine

What is your diet like generally - add avocados and good fats and cut down on fried food, salty food and sugar

I am a whore for salt alright. Not a great vegetable eater to be honest. Smoking too much. Have eased off the booze a fair amount since my 20’s moved on though.

My wrists & thumb joints are acting up badly the past 2 months though.

Any thoughts?
