***Wednesday Bites, Vites & Exercites***

Gina...thanks for your offer to look at my labs.  I have tried about 10 times to post them & then tried to add them to my blog...nothing seems to work.  What is weird is that I copy/paste from excel into here daily without issue...so don't know what the problem is! 

Anyhoo...there must be something wrong with my work computer because I tried to 'friend' you so I could send you a PM/email with the info, but I cannot go into your profile or even choose you to make a friend request...I know, at this point I am just whining!  Just let me know the best way for me to contact you...I'd love for you to look at my labs & make suggestions.

I sent you a PM with my email addy. You can send the spreadsheet to me there and I'll let you know what I think.

 

Dang! I wish my labs had looked this good at 6 months post-op!  You’re doing great!   The vitamin K1 almost looks like a lab error to me if it’s the same test as the stated range. I would ask to get it retested. In the mean time stop taking it. Everything looks like it’s trending in the right directions. I have a feeling you’ll have perfect labs by 9 months post-op. Push to get your other B vitamins added. You can reduce your folic acid by a couple of days a week if you’re supplementing. If your B6 is too high, you can cut your B-complex but you want to make sure B1 doesn’t need to be supplemented separately.   Awesome job so far.  : )   Gina
