Should I stop the vitamins before a full blood work up?

Great question, as I am off for blood work next week and was wondering also what to do?

My doctor wants me to stop mine 3 days before I have my yearly blood tests. Maybe you should ask your doctor what is their recommendation.

Hey laurie,
how's work going?
The vitamin gurus on the board have said:
Stop vitamin D and B12 for 1 week prior to labs and stop all other vits for 3 days prior to labs.
Good luck,
Holly

Thanks Holly!
So far so good at work. I bought a new pair of schechers and I float around. Everyone is shocked at the weight loss. I was not going to tell anyone, but some co-workers were relentless so I spilled the beans. Lots of good support for my decision.

My doc has never told me to stop anything before blood work, but every doc is different! Even taking mega dosages of vitamins i still have low vitamin D and b21!
Good luck!
