I have hashimoto so in truth there is nothing wrong with my thyroid it just been taken out in the cross fire. Which is why I'm still trying to get a balance. Some think that is impossible but I know a few who have so I keep going. I want to see my grandson graduate and he is only 2 so I can't let it win!!!

I like your motivation.
I don't have any kids yet myself, but would like to some day when I know for sure that I am healthy enough to take care of them properly.
My folate was actually pretty high and surprised the doctor even, but the doctor didn't say it was a problem... Oh, just realized you were talking about the vitamin, lol.. Umm, it looks like my old daily multivitamin had 100% daily value of folate and 300% B12 (cyanocobalamin). I just switched to a multivitamin with iron (this one has 100% dv iron as opposed to the 250% that I was taking for the past month), and have been trying to eat more meat, fish, and veggies with iron as well. Funny thing too is that my multivitamin had 200% vitamin D and that was still borderline low.
