You are doing great work. I appreciate all the information you have made available. I came across your site while searching for information about Vitamin D deficiency. I have been not feeling well for a long long time. I have flu like aches and tired no energy. The doctors always see the depression and although I have tried many kinds of antidepressants,I stopped taking them....none helped some made me feel worse. I have continued to feel really sick. Just last week a doctor I saw did a Vitamin D test and it came back a 5..the lowest on the scale. He had said that he wanted to take the test only because someone in the mental health department had mentioned that sometimes people with depression have low vitamin D levels. I have been reading up about it and am wondering if this could be the reason I have been feeling so badly. No one ever did this test on me. I am waiting to hear from my doctor to see what he is going to advise next. I don't feel confident that I will get the correct tests because I am in a HMO and getting referred to a specialist is often difficult. After reading about the dangers of such a low reading, I am worried and not sure what to ask for when I talk to my doctor. I am concerned there is an underlying cause for this low reading and if the doctor just prescribes the vitamin D for me to take without ordering the other tests to determine what is causing my low reading, What other tests should be run on someone like me with such a very low reading? I appreciate any suggestions. I am still waiting to hear from my doctor. I viewd my test results on line and three days ago and am still waiting for a response from him as to what he is going to recommend. Thank you so much. ann Hello

]]> Comment on new ways to think about cancer not taught in medical school? by Mary Wright http://bostonmedicalstudent.wordpress.com/2008/07/20/new-ways-to-think-about-cancer-not-taught-in-medical-school/#comment-163 Mary Wright Thu, 29 Jan 2009 13:02:33 +0000 http://bostonmedicalstudent.wordpress.com/?p=44#comment-163 I think Carr is onto something. I have gone through your site in (what Carr would call my "Cancer College") and love the posts on gut flora and fish oil (not necessarily in the same article, of course). I'm not a Dr. -- just the wife/caregiver of someone with lung cancer. He is 3 years post-diagnosis and believe me we love information. The comment above about pancreatic enzymes caught my eye as we had to work really hard to keep hubby's enzyme levels up -- more enzymes, more nutrition, more nutrition, better weight maintenance, better weight, more treatment options, etc. thanks. Good luck in school/residency. I think Carr is onto something.
