Hi,
In my last blood work I showed low Zink and vit D. I take 12 Vita4life every day and this is working very well.  But...with these two being low, I need to go to my surgeon to get a recommendation of what I can take to bring up the numbers.

It is especially important as Zink helps healing and I will have surgery in August...so need to act fast.

Will post later when i find out what to do.  I have no idea right now.  Guess this tells you as a DSer, that you need to manage your situation after all blood tests, and track closely your situation.

i actually keep an excel sheet so I can see over the 3 years where my bloods are sitting.  It helps me to see the fluctutations.

will keep you posted...until next time..
 


DS Surgery June 2006,  Been fine every since.  Weight stays the same. Rarely remember I had surgery.....except for the daily vitamins.

Hi Catherine
Low vitamin D surprises me  I take extra D from October to April but not in the summer time.
