Is 450mg citrate a safe dose?

It’s not elemental, I’ve been taking 300 a day for years, but I have bad anxiety and constipation at the moment so am thinking of taking 450mg.

I don’t want to mess up my electrolytes and I know people will say it’s absolutely fine, but I thought I’d check first.

I’m drinking half the coffee I used to and I cannot for the life of me poop! Plus it’s helping my anxiety today as I took an extra 75mg…

Any advice appreciated!

B12 too high

I take a b12 sublingual anout 3 times a week and a vitamin B complex also twice a week.

I’m worried as my levels are 1500 but my white blood cells are fine. I can’t speak to my doctor for a few days.

Should I be worrying? I’m having a lot of anxiety. I have no symptoms of high B12. Could it just be the supplements?

Thanks a lot for any help. I have bad health anxiety issues.

New to E patches - advice needed

Hey hey.. I am just about to put on my second estrogen patch tonight. I’m not feeling good today, had night sweats and mood and motivation suddenly lower after a great few days.

I had the patch on my upper butt but I’m always on a heated electric blanket and feel like maybe the front or back placement while I sleep with heat made it estrogen dump and like there’s none left.

My hip and outer thigh will have less contact with the electric blanket (it’s getting wintery here in AUS), should I put it on my fatty hip or less fatty outer thigh? Or continue with buttock and not worry about the constant warmth on the patch?

Any advice appreciated! I can’t get out of bed this morning, might slap the new patch on early (before night shower). My hip is pretty fatty, my thigh less so.

Thanks!
