East Lancashire NHS Trust – you win the trophy hands down, for dangerously low, lower reference level for serum B12 test, 110 – 914ng/L!

Just take a look at these results, which are being ignored by the GP (see previous post) and then have a gasp at that lower reference range, are you still standing?  NO?…. neither is the patient.  They remain exhausted with regular blackouts.

What are you doing to your patients East Lancashire NHS Trust?

How many Lancastrians have been misdiagnosed with other illnesses due to the almost impossibility of achieving a diagnosis of B12 deficiency under this Trust?

East Lancashire NHS Trust need to identify all the inevitable misdiagnoses due to this incredibly low reference range – we thought Cardiff and Vale NHS Trust were bad but this really takes the biscuit.

Exactly how many patients have been incorrectly misdiagnosed with;

Alzheimer’s/Dementia?

Depression?

Chronic fatigue syndrome?

Fibromyalgia?

Multiple sclerosis?

M E?

Psychosis?

Bipolar?

Vertigo?

Congestive heart failure?

Chronic pain disorder?

Anaemia?

Autism?

ADHD?

How many babies fail to thrive?

How many children have a diagnosis of developmental delay, mental retardation?

How many metformin taking diabetics have their neuropathy incorrectly attributed to diabetes?

How many new mothers sectioned with post natal depression from diminished B12 supplies?

How many benign essential tremors have automatically led clinicians to an incorrect diagnosis of Parkinson’s?

How many Strokes and heart attacks?

How many suicides?

 

East Lancashire NHS Trust we implore you to change this assay kit and re test all who have gone before and to screen all those patients who have left the GP’s office with nothing more than a diagnosis of hypochondria.

TAKE ACTION NOW – THIS IS SERIOUS!!

  1. Reblogged this on Jacqueline Mckenzie's Blog and commented:
    I will compare this to Japans where patients are treated as deficient if their level falls below 500. They are killing us one by one here through ignorance and neglect. There is a silent epidemic going on. Get your levels checked, know the references ranges are wrong and the tests are not accurate. If you have any symptoms make sure you get treated.

  2. Absolutely ridiculous. I wonder what data there is to show levels of dementia, heart attack etc. I would be interesting to see the difference between east lancs and the county with the higher ranges and also Maybe a couple of towns in canada and japan. I am sure those countries have one reference range.
