Yesterday was busy, had many things go wrong, and ended with me half-convinced that my recent bloodwork had indicated something wrong. My doctor had called and left a message at home that I didn't get until after she'd gone home for the night, so you can imagine what *that* felt like.
Well. Turned out not to be nearly as bad as I thought it was. The reason she called was because I'm severely Vitamin D deficient, as in less than half the acceptable level. I've been put on supplements, effective immediately, and urged to get out in the sun more often, which should do the trick. It also may help with my memory and cognition issues, since Vitamin D deficiency is associated with dementia.
Other than that, blood sugar, thyroid, cholesterol, hormones, creatinine, and so on are fine, AND I've lost over twenty pounds thanks to diet and exercise. Now I just need to take my horse pills once a week....:)
