Well I got my blood work back and the only thing that looked bad to me was my vitamin D. It was in the insufficient range. I had my other doctor check that a while back when I complained about fatigue years ago. She explained low vit D can cause fatigue. So I will need to talk to my doctor about that and what to do about it.

The test was ordered by my cystic fibrosis doctor so it has something to do with my disease.

What i am about to say YOU already know . Your body probably has a tough time pulling nutrients from food .
Thus eat as much food that is packed with vitamins plus whatever else they tell ya .
The average life span they say is forty four years of age . BUT THE LORD GOD IS IN CONTROL .
DID you know that in twenty fourteen their was a lady still alive with this disease , SHE WAS EIGHTY TWO at the time .
EIGHTY TWO . that is longer than even the average life span . SO just KNOW GOD IS IN CONTROL .
Eat as healthy as you can and i wonder if they can get vitamin D into you through the blood and not just the stomach .
OH wait you can . THE sunlight my friend . GET some sun light .

I did some research on vitamin D sources as my levels were terribly low. So I picked up some whole milk and tuna from the store. That should kick my vit D back up. I'm waiting for the doctor to respond on my problem. I should know more from him tomorrow.

But the doctor did say the extreme fatigue episodes weren't vitamin D deficiency. But it may explain my lesser daily fatigue.

Well they haven't explained the extreme fatigue, night sweats and chills that happens monthly yet. But this solves my daily fatigue. So yeah, it's a miracle that they ordered a vitamin D test. Or I never would have been made aware of that.

I learned something about vit D online. You need it in your diet and it is not something to play around with. Low vit D can make your bones soft and it can lead to heart problems and may be related to cancer.

I talked to the doctor specialist for my cystic fibrosis. They said the vitamin deficiency is related to the cystic fibrosis. My body doesn't absorb vitamins properly. So they suggested I take a one a day. But the severe fatigue and episodes of night sweats and chills isn't related to the CF.

I've had three episodes of extreme exhaustion in the last three months. I went to urgent care and they turned up nothing in the blood tests. I keep having night sweats and chills at night also. And sometimes I feel sick inside.

Today I can barely get out of bed. I'm getting some more blood work done tomorrow from a specialist. So maybe that will reveal something. I can't see my PC until the end of the month which is a ways off.

Thanks for any prayers.
I'm sorry I didn't see this, Dev. I really stink at keeping up with what's going on around here.

Prayers for you, my friend.

I've been thinking of you. How are you feeling?
Hi Wrangler. I got some vit D milk and tuna which is rich in vit D. I'm feeling slightly better and my mood is improving again. Low vit D can cause depression too. The doctor ordered some super vit D for me, apparently my stomach isn't absorbing properly due to the cystic fibrosis.

My 2-yo grandson has CF. He has to have an enzyme before eating. I'm sorry for your condition.

Mine is a-typical CF so it mainly was destroying my liver at 50 years old. Sorry to hear about your grandson. They have good meds for the CF now. I take one that keeps my liver doing well. But yes I was informed about the enzymes that people with typical CF have to take. Can be scary.
