Thanks once again for replying!

We just tested copper at the time of her biopsy this past Monday and it was in the normal range for her age (records haven’t been update to show the exact amount), and her iron stores have all been in range:
IRON, TOTAL 97 25-101 mcg/dL Normal
IRON BINDING CAPACITY 332 271-448 mcg/dL (calc) Normal
% SATURATION 29 8-45 % (calc) Normal F

Her ferritin was mildly low once, but has since come up.

Metals were all negative and the only thing that showed with the urine testing was that coproporphyrin III was slightly elevated though the additional testing that came of that was negative. ERYTHROCYTE PROTOPORPHYRIN was slightly elevated.

Her hemoglobin has been consistently around 9.5, her neutrophils now mildly reduced and her platelets are in good range (though they used to be around 405 and now around 225-250).

Edited to add that she hasn't been diagnosed as celiac though I have a history so we're both gluten free. I noticed she had a sensitivity to dairy given her eczema, so we cut that last year with good results. She has no GI issues with the dietary modifications.

I really appreciate the input!!!
