The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
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.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.
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.

gud! Dude, it's good to see you pixels!
Supplements: low D so take the supplement, take the Magnesium and Potassium and it helps with the charly horses.
Extra B-12, multi-vite and B-multi.
I'm still alive so they must be working.
