RESULTS...
Dr called me this afternoon...blood test very good for someone NOT taking anything!!! BUT he told me he wants me to start taking vitamin D3 2000 IU every day now and also Vitamin B 12 I think he said...I have it written down in my office...yeah ok...how about the results on my wrist xray? nothing yet. Crap!! Wearing the brace and trying to write or type my wrist snaps so that makes it hurt worse!!! So not doing much of that right now. I do wear it to bed though. Doing some home therapy like dr wants me to do...dishes in ho****er... yippeee squeezing sponges until water turns cool. Yeah ok. I knew all that from back when my finger was broken. That is why I am not going IN for therapy. I have no idea what I did to my wrist and no Rick didn't do anything to me to hurt it....could be carpel tunnel or arthritis...waiting for results. Sighs...OK better get the brace back on.

Hi Judy,
I have to take a 2000 IU vitamin D dose everyday, along with 1000 mg. Tums. Also, I take a 1000 mg sublingual B12 everyday. I usually get B12 shots, but my new hematologist told me there's a shortage of them in the country. Sublingual B12 absorbs better than swallowing it whole.
Hope your hand heals fast.
Hugs,

I know I am bad....I HATE taking pills of any kind!!! Was always like that!!! I GAG taking them and told the dr long ago I had trouble taking them...well I will try once again...promise!!!
I am thinking I might have sprang my wrist while trying to crack Ricks back....maybe????? Still waiting on results....

You must not malabsorb as much ... I've been taking 2000 IU of D3 for a few years, more than I was told to take, and I'm still low. Also taking B12 because I seem to have nerve damage in my legs. There are some options out there of chewable or dissolvable in water pills (check Puritan's Pride ... they are fairly cheap and have good sales ... buy one get one free or buy two get three free). It's puritanspride.com
Hope the x-ray on the wrist tells you something.
