Re: Interpreting Blood Test results

[Guest guest]

That's fine Sheila - I accidentally emailed you instead of posting and I know

you are busy. Do you think someone will comment on my blood results? Then I

can know what to expect and act on the next set in June. So many conflicting

ref. ranges and measurement abbrevs. on the internet and I want to make sure my

B12 and Ferritin are on the upper end of the ranges.

Many thanks, Jayne

Thanks Sheila - these results were taken in 2009 before started on thyroid

replacement, but now I will have something to compare when they are tested again

in June. Appreciate the reply as I know you are busy. Jayne
