Labwork

Jun 04, 2009

About a week ago I go some labs done and today I got a call from my PCP's nurse.  Everything looks good for the most part, the things I thought would be an issue aren't.  In fact I was worried my protein levels would be low, but no.  My protein levels and my B12 levels are actually high according to her.  The reason for the call however was that I have very low iron.  My PCP ordered me some iron suppliments and I am to pick them up today.  I just asked my surgeon last week if I should take iron yet, when he said to start taking calcium and flax seed oil.  He said to wait until I got back my first set of labs. Unforntunately, he is out of town until Monday, so I won't know what he thinks of my levels until then.  I feel healthy, MY THYROID IS NORMALLLLL, cholestoral is NORMALLLL, and everything looks good.  So I am not worried, I just want to make sure my iron levels go up and I will feel a lot better.  I am hopeful :)
