    Default First full blood panel results

    My doc said my numbers are all well within normal ranges! HDLs, LDLs, Trigs, all great. My B12 is off the charts high. She said scale back. I was taking 2500mg/day. She said do 1000mgs/day. My VitD3 is way to low. She said take 5000mg/day for 5 weeks, then scale back to 1000mg/day for the rest of my life. She said my liver is fatty, but is to be expected with how much I did weigh. Normal numbers for that are 2-52, mine is at 60. She said nothing to worry about unless mine was 100. But she wants another panel done in 3 months and believes that even that number will have decreased significantly. My iron is good, protein is good, muscle is good. So, pretty great!! Yay, me!!

    When was the last time you'd had your bloods taken?
    What can you do for the fatty liver?
    Have you been taking a multivitamin or the individual ones (b12) etc

    All in all you're looking just fine. How are you feeling?

    Hi Jen! I had a heart attack 3 years ago, so I have my panels done every 6 months. Last time, my triglycerides were high. Much better this time! The best thing to do for fatty liver is to lose the weight, according to my doc. I feel great! Thanks for asking! I walk everyday and have an abundance of energy.
    My list of dailies: Viactiv Soft chews Multi-vitamin for women
    Caltrate Calcium Supplement soft chews
    300mg Krill oil (omega 3 fatty acids- for prevention of hair loss, skin & nail support, brain health, heart health)
    5000mg Biotin (Spring Valley brand from Walmart)
    5000IU D3 (Spring Valley brand)
    1000mcg Hi-potency B12 sublinguals (Spring Valley brand)
