Thanks for the quick response.

Good guess Marlene...I actually have Celiac Disease. Although I have been gluten free for 15 months and my albumin is high, which my GI doctor says is a good sign I'm absorbing nutrients again. Also no vegetarian here...big meat eater. I'm athlete, so I eat a high protein diet of lean meats/fish.

Currently here are the vitamins I've beed tested for:

Copper: Never tested
B6: Awaiting results

Folate: 10 (normal 3 - 16)
Vitamin A: 138 (normal 50 - 200)

Zinc: 15 (normal 15 - 30)
Vitamin D: 30 (normal 30 - 60)
INR: 1.25 (normal 0.8 - 1.2) <-- shows slightly low in vitamin K
IRON: 65 (30 - 300)

My doctor said my zinc and vitamin D were only slightly low, so it is no big deal and wont see any symptoms for it. As for my INR (vitamin K), once again, only slightly low. Iron is considered optimal at 70-90 he said, so mine is pretty good. The rest were normal or not completed yet. As for B12, my doctor said 276 would not leave me with any symptoms and there is no need for anything to be done. I've been taking sublinguals for the last year, but wont go up.

Thanks for the tip Marlene, I appreciate it. Do you know why the vitamins would affect my retic? My RBC is pretty normal, just retic is always so low.

Thanks.
