came back really good actually - surprisingly and good. My liver is find and everything else. The only thing that is down is my Vitamin D level. I am kinda surprised, it has only been a couple of months when I wanted to just sit in the dark. I haven't been out much so yeah. oh well things could be worse! Even my b-12 leval was good that even surprised me!

" I am glad to hear that your results came back good.
Last time I had all those blood tests the only thing that came back abnormal was some chemical that told them that I have inflammation. (no kidding? someone with fibro has inflammation? well duh!!!) They didn't even give me any meds to treat it or anything!
Still I think it is good to have these tests ocasionaly because the fibro can easily mask other conditions.
At least you dont need to worry about having anything else right now!

Hugs,
B "

" Did you get copies of your results? I always get them. My old doc said my B12 was fine, when it wasn't. My new doc just about flipped when he seen how low it was. I'm glad everything is good.

Did you get your anti-streptolysine, Epstein Barr and Rheumatoid Arthritis checked? "

" Good to hear! I know you want to sit in the dark but try to get at least 15 mins of sun, it is very good for depression and your vitamin d levels. Give your little girl a hug for me and have a great night with her! "
