Three month check-up

Had my three month checkup and my surgeon tells me I am anemic due to iron deficiency.  Explains why my energy has never rebounded from pre-surgery.  Going to try four iron supplement pills per day.

Iron - 10  - normal range 40-190 - pre-surgery was 47
Iron Binding Capacity - 231 - normal range 200-450 
% stauration - 4 - normal range 12-57%
Vitamin D, 25-OH total - 35 -
Vitamin D, 25-OH D3 - 30 - normal >30
Viatmin D, 25-OH D2 - 5
Hemoglobin - 11.8 - normal range 13.8 - 17.2
Hematocrit - 35.8 - normal range 41 - 50
Ferritin - 238 - normal range 18-350
PTH, Intact - 26 - normal range 14-72
B12 - 1018 - normal range 200-1100 ( 2500 mcg subligual daily must be working)
Folic Acid - 15.8

On the plus side my:

Calcium was 9.6 - normal 8.5 to 10.4
Protein was 7.8 - normal 6.0 - 8.3

I was told to not take my iron within 1-2 hrs of the calcium  I take my iron just b4 bed.  My calcium spread over B-L-D
Good numbers and good luck

Same thing here - iron and Vit C together to help each other out, keep two hours away from calcium.

I don't get labs until the six-month checkup.
