So I just got the results of my 12 month postop labs. My 6 month labs showed high Iron and Calcium so I discontinued those supplements. This time around my iron was in the normal range but my calcium was still slightly high. Probably from all the dairy I eat. The only other abnormality was that my folate was high. This can be an indication of low B12, but in this case my B12 is fine. My PCP just figures it's from what I'm eating plus the 400mcg in my multi and he's not concerned. And just for shits and giggles he threw in some hormone tests and I'm happy to report I am not yet menopausal! So looks like I'll just keep on my current supplements (1/2 dose Vitamin Code for Women, D3 5000iu 3x week and B12 500mcg sublingual 4xweek) and check bloodwork again in a year.
BTW, the tests we ran were CBC, metabolic panel, lipids, B12, Vitamin D, ferritin, folate, zinc, TSH, and FSH.
Wishing good health to all of you!
