these were ordered by my hematologist and his office said everything was "fine". i did find out though that the nurse was the one *****viewed them not the dr. there seems to be no rhyme or reason on how the results were grouped together so if its jumbled i apologize. any input would be appreciated.

 Your calcium got low and your protein was then and is now way low. Can you add in a couple of shakes a day to deal with that quickly? It should help you heal/recover from your surgery.

i dont know what is going on with my calcium as i am taking the same amount as before and i am eating/ drinking more dairy. i am drinking 3 protein shakes a day and getting in around 140-150 g of protein total. it ****** me off that none of my health care providers are concerned about my protein. my protein levels have always been low since my ds and not even the nutritionist seems concerned. there is no way i can put any more in my stomach. since i had the plastics- it is all i can do to get in what i am and still drink enough fluids. i have what seems like 0 space in there. my abdominal muscles are all knotted up
