Hi,
Sorry it's taken me so long to respond, I was having a hard time getting some of the test results. So far here's what I've got for answers to your questions:
1) I take Centrum Plus and have faithfully everyday for 12yrs ever since I stopped drinking. 2) I didn't have any pain in my left hip prior to that day, and in fact the hip pain came on slowly over about 2wks time and has remained ever since. 3) No, I haven't. 4) Here's what I have re: B12 tests
12/18/06 B12 - 347 pg/ml 1/04/07 B12 - 346 pg/ml. these were blood serum results according to Kaiser. 5) I don't smoke and have never smoked. I don't believe that the hip pain is structural since I have never injured that hip or had any pain prior to this disease. I got the results on several other blood tests that have been done and will post them shortly.
