I've been dragging my butt for months now, and was interpreting it as being a symptom of my depression.

But I was having my Dr. check my blood work for some specific things and she decided to do a full work up.

It turns out I have low hemoglobin counts, really low B12 levels and really low Ferretin levels. She wants me to start supplements immediately and will recheck in 3 months.


I'm really hopeful that the supplements will help because I'm just starting a new job, and need to be motivated for that.

Strange...I had the same results turn up from recent blood work. I can't recall if your on meds, but with my result I'm wondering if meds I'm on might have caused the results.

I started supplments myself. My GP is a careless bi*ch
