I cannot begin to interpret the blood counts - what have the docs said? Usually when mine are off they nod and say it is OK!

Craving salt usually means you need it but you did not put a sodium or potassium number up here. Nausea etc. all that can be the adrenal stuff and why you are here but it sounds like more is up.
MVP can signal auto-immune disease.
The eye thing - have you been to a neurologist?
Period - you need a good endo...

So, do you have a good endo?

Oh then 9 is pathetic! LOL... Did the doc prescribe a large amount of D? My doctor tells me to take D3 - and I take quite a bit to get my levels up as well. The prescription is for 50ki.u. but OTC you can only but 1ki.u. or 5ki.u pills (maybe 10) - so I take anywhere around 4-7ki.u a day... plus calcium and all that... the more you take, the faster it will rise.

It does help you feel a lot better!

You did not give a range on Vit D... you did not say low and so uh... I have no idea with no range.

Your Na and K look perfect. That kinda rules out AI as well...
Even without the endometriosis - surprised you have not been saddled with PCOS!

heya, my doctor hasn't seen my results yet. i just picked up my tests and couldn't talk to her cause she wasn't in at the time.
should i be worried about my vitamin d or anything?

my Sodium  138   132 - 149

and

Potassium  4.0   2.5 - 5.5


i actually have a appointment for an neurologist in a few weeks.
i also had a really good endo doctor who was 99% sure i had endometriosis.
(even had laparoscopic surgery for it) and they found nothing.  =/
i'm at a dead end.....   =/
