Hi, I would like some feedback on my blood test results.  I'm going to new doctor and want to be sure she checked what needed to be tested.  I am tired a lot and have had something similar to hot flashes (66 years old, so past that).  This was a fasting blood test.

Well, your B12 is excellent.  Your total protein is too low, ideally it would be at least 7.0.

Yep, looks good except protein. Should be where Kelly said.

 Thanks, Kelly and Fire Muse!  I'll try to work in more protein.  Kelly, my Vitamin D3 was 73.  Is that too low?

Just a teeny bit.  Ideally it would be at least 80, according to the Linus Pauling Institute.
