Well my labs came back its not my thyroid those levels are text book almost perfect. Do you think maybe I am not getting enough calories? I still only maybe get 800 a day. I thought for sure it was gonna be my thyroid. All I can think of now is that its still the ferritin. Oh well I will figure this out I am sure. It stinks feeling so tired all the time. Maybe Ill up my protein I get the minimum but maybe I need to try for the max.

you should be at at least 1000 calories a day. that extra protein drink should do it for you. i get tired easy too. easily could nap during the afternoon and sleep a good 12 hours a night.

How was your B12? That would indicate lack of energy, if it is low. Maybe they need to give you a B12 shot?

My B12 was off the charts high before surgery it has gradually come down but at my 6 month was still close to 1000 lol so I don't think that is it. My Ferritin is probably the culprit it was only at 7 at my 6 month and if it has gone down anymore owooo I just don't know.
