Just kidding... I got griped at about not taking my calcium yesterday also. It is hard when you are further out to remember. I guess we all need to learn from what happened to Ramon. A lot of us need to do a better job
But way to go posting it so that you hold yourself accountable.

im proud of you for getting your labs done AND for posting them. I had been taking my religiously and mine were still in the tank!!!!!! Im not sure how much D you were told to take but make sure its the D3 and its 50,000 daily as it takes the 3 a while to come up. My ferritin was... 5 and i was taking mine daily. SUCKS dont it! lol.
When I was born, I cried and the world rejoiced. Now i wanna live my life so that when I die, the world cries and I rejoice
The Cupboard (our local healthfood store) had their brand D3 in a liquid... 1 DROP contains 2000 IU, so I'm looking at doing 2 or 3 drops a day
On a good note, my Cholestrol was in the doc's words "Great", my sugar level was 85 and my B12 was 1525.... LOL
