   Low Ferritin (Anemia board)

7th May 2007
I wish that just having a great attitude would increase my energy level, but it just isn't the case. It does get frustrating when I try to play soccer or basketball with my ADHD kids who have SO much energy and I can only give them about 5-10 minutes before I have to sit down. I'll be 33 this week. I'm not old, I have nothing majorly wrong with me. I'm just tired and hurt all over.

I saw the MD for my cholesterol today. Oops. I knew it was high, but my MD said that it's gone too far for dietary control. She said it's familial, so she's going to start me on Vytorin today. My TC=327, HDL=40, TRG=405 and my LDL which I guess comes from a formula wasn't measureable. She said that isn't good.

I also had Hgb=11.3 and my Ferritin=7 (yaay, up 1 point!) My TIBC=403 (Good, it was over 500 in August).

Thanks for letting me vent.
