[QUOTE="confuzzled, post: 365470, member: 8831"] disclaimer: i know it will not be this simple, lol, but let me dream for a second.... just got a call from the pediatrician...difficult child 2's bloodwork came back.... [B]severe vitamin d deficiency.[/B] pediatrician looked at me like *i* was [I]crazy[/I] when i asked to have it done (i was actually asking for a slip for the fall, when things start to go downhill...but she was nice enough to add it on to the routine slip for now) vitamin d affects 8,768,907 things in your body...big ones of which are mood and fatigue. now this from a kid who is outside every day, either at the park or in the pool, + recess....and we live 5 miles from the beach. she's not really a milk drinker, but you dont get much from that anyway. *I* have a severe deficiency too, but i only supplement during the summer months...i save the horse doses for winter. but i can tell you how *I* felt before it was diagnosis'd...exhausted and moody wasnt the word. i literally couldnt get off the couch. literally. i felt like a million bucks after supplementation (well, in comparision, lol!) so if anyone is doing bloodwork, ask to have a Vit. D level thrown in. i'll fall over if this could all be fixed with a vitamin :winking: [/QUOTE]
