I got some of the results in from testing I had last week. For background, I have been taking high dose Vit. D as well as 2,000mg of B-12(methylcobalamin and adenosylcobalamin). And many other supplements.
cholesterol is "superb" despite the addition of much more fatty meat
ferritin level is high (doesn't give #) - this reflects both iron stores as well as inflammation and suggests no deficiency - likely elevated due to chronic connective tissue disorder according to the doctor. I do not supplement with iron.
kidney function tests and electrolytes, including potassium, are normal.
Vit. B-12 level is 2,000 which doctor says is "fine".
Vit. D level is 85, which he says is excellent and suggests I reduce dose to 400units/day.
So, these are pretty good results, right??
