Guest guest Posted February 26, 2011 Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 This is Vera in Ca, I got moved, and I am so blessed not to be beneath that mountain any longer because we have been getting tons of rain. I am loving my new location/apt. My labs came back that I am low on vit D, which I do not understand because I take a calcium with D, so I have increased the vit D 400 iu to 2000, but than just got a call back from doc saying to increase to 800 iu (oops) and she also said to take B12 which i do take a B complex, and she said take a multiable vit. I asked for a bone scan because I have so much bone pain or maybe it's the fibro connective tissue problem pulling on the bones. My doc said I was too young for a bone scan and to wait till I am 65? so why is my D being depleted? There is a march rally taking place in AZ March 5th to get transplant funding back, which medicaid has been cut since also. I think across the boards everything is being cut. I hear, welfare will be cut, medical/medicaid, SSI...it's all on the chopping block! Pretty scary!! Will see. I am keeping u all going thru tx in my prayers.Anyone who can defeat the dragon is a true warrior, because it certainly is not an easy battle. I wait patiently for a new tx that i can do! If it ever came down to a transplant I think I would pass it on to a young person whom has their whole life ahead of them, being 51 I am not that old but have been blessed to have lived many years more than some. Stay warm, stay positive n NEVER give up! xoxo vew459 aka:Vera Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
