Hi Ziggy
you are evidently well on course to being a mystery to medical science.
OH came off all his metformin after his doctor’s visit yesterday, and after having generally low blood count (including platelets as I mentioned previously), with prescribed iron tablets, the doctor told him the results were generally marginal and not a reason for worry. So he is continuing with just 1 iron tablet daily.
With regard to the B12/folate levels, he doesn’t seem to have experienced those, so no detailed help, sorry. As quinnt says, Mr Google doesn’t have much helpful to say, does he.
Can’t believe that the BSD food would affect this adversely, though? You are emulating Popeye with regard to the spinach, you said.
I expect you will have to explore it all thoroughly with the medics at your appointment, and doubtless they will be equally puzzled. I’m tempted to think these are just freak results and go to show how variable the range of acceptable levels actually are.
Good luck, and it will certainly help to take Folic Acid tablets if you are intending to get pregnant. (joke).
