Guest guest Posted September 22, 2008 Report Share Posted September 22, 2008 I'm going to have a blood test for my LFT's on Wednesday and I also want to get my vitamin levels tested. However I'm not too sure what Vitamins to test for. Is it A, D E and K or is it something else. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Richelle (who is still unable to be stented but they're working on it) New Zealand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
