What is the name exactly of the vitamin labs that we need to have checked so often?
I still need to get my before surgery vitamin labs done. I was curious if anyone knows what they are called? Im going to mexicali for my
DS surgery with Dr. Aceves, and I would like to be able to comparison shop where it would be cheaper. Here in the U.S. or Mexico? Thanks
