6 Month Labs

Jun 22, 2011

I've been looking over my 6 month labs (my appt is not until 7/15) online and they don't look so good. My protein, Vitamin D and Ferritin are all really low. Also, my Parathroid Hormone level is really high but I don't know if that is normal or not. The normal range is up to 65 and mine is at 86. I'm not a Dr so I don't want to attempt to decipher my results too much. I do know that, considering I haven't had a protein shake since April and I've only taken my Iron maybe 3 times, those are my fault. Also, I'm just not very consistant at taking any of my vitamins except the B vitamins. Those I take daily because the Dr stressed that the damage caused by being deficient in those is irreversible. So today I'm writing everything down (as a protein check), adding unflavored protein to everything and taking all of my vitamins. I've taken my Iron the last 2 days but....it still makes me really nauseated so I have to take it with a Tylenol PM so that I can at least sleep through it!
