Your ferritin is good but your actual iron and and sat% are low. What type of iron are you taking and how much? You should be taking carbonyl iron with vitamin C preferably. This works great and is cheap - you can get it a vitalady.com called tender irons - it has the necessary C in it. The other option is heme iron called proferrin but this is very expensive so we reserve this for those that can't absorb the carbonyl well and some take the 2 together to get good results if necessary.
Your PTH and D are great - the D3 is the part of the D-25 hydroxy that we absorb and supplemet and that is the number that we use.
Your b1 is okay but could be higher - are you taking any? You should be taking 100mg of vitamin B1 daily. This is the case for all postops.
Your B12 is most concerning - you are seriously deficient. You want your levels to be atleast 1200-2000, and anything less than 500 puts you at risk for nerve damage adn left that way long enough, it can become permanent. How much are you taking and how often? Is it sublingual? You should be taking a minimum of 1000mcg daily but if you are already taking that, you need to increase to 2500mcg daily. Whatever you are taking, you need to triple your dose or more. There is no danger in it being too high but too low can be very serious.
I see that you are having trouble posting so if you want to sendme the rest, I would be glad to look at them
