Re: Re: Appointment with Dr. Leu

[Guest guest]

It seems like some people are more text book than others, which makes it

easier to self treat. I was never that way. I had blood work done and got

the results today. I am still low in B vitamins, despite the mega doses I

take. He put me on a new one again. Some of us need guidance and

monitoring to be healthy.

Hi Cherie,

Low immune function and fatigue are main symptoms. I don't really suffer

from either noticeably but it definitely isn't good for me. Yes, it shows

up on a standard CBC. Do you have recent CBC results?

That's wonderful, Cherie, I'm glad to hear you have some relief. Hopefully

this will be your last round with prednisone.

I like to have labs run so I can see what's going on in my body. I feel

fine now but my B-vitamins are still really off. If I went on how I feel, I

wouldn't know what is going on.
