In terms of supplements, the best thing I've done for myself is get iron and b-complex patches. I can tell the difference in my energy levels if I forget to stick them on.

We switched from T-Mobile to Mint, because cheaper and basically the same coverage. Or maybe exactly the same coverage? And then T-Mobile bought Mint, so... Mint service has been fine + bonus Ryan Reynolds. I don't know from phones, though.

I have grown older, but not up.

supplements

Last year, when I reported leg and arm cramps to my PCP, he had me start taking 400mg of OTC magnesium, and that has helped a lot.

Last month, my nephrologist expressed concern about my ongoing slight anemia and low vitamin D level, so I've doubled my OTC multivitamin (pharmacy brand that duplicates what is in Centrum Silver) and started taking an OTC iron supplement. Next blood draw is the day before Halloween ("All doctors are wampires." -- Pavel Chekov) and I am curious to see if the change has made any difference.

When my doctor was going over my most recent labs (which is when we discovered I have mild anemia), she immediately said, "This means iron supplements, not going and feasting on the villagers".

It's like she knows me or something.

Yeah, I'm slightly anemic, too, so we're trying extra B12, which was low, and folate (though I'm not sure that's related -- it was just low).

My Vit D is abysmal as it is fat metabolized or whatever, and I don't really metabolized fat anymore after losing so much and specific parts of my entrails. Might be going to injections for that.

My understanding is that one needs Vitamin K to go with any Vitamin D.

Last meeting of the day is over. Not seeing much point in trying to do actual work at this point...
