Thank you for this....and then technically, I am OK....and it is totally fine that the 25 kind is low (23) and the 1,25 kind is normal (60.4)? hmmmmm. Well, I will take the D3 I have....the cholecalciferol. Again, thank you, I know you are always explaining this to us...we do appreciate it.

I think you have it backwards?

Thank you.

According to this, I am substantially deficient.....(I have no excuse for my intellectual functioning lately.)

I think that I have a ghost in my house, and it keeps taking the things I put somewhere safe. When I try to find something, it is never where I put it.

Like my Eddie Bauer head lamp was in the garage freezer.....

I am trying to make pumpkin cheesecake with pecan praline drizzle and after assembling all my ingredients (I know I need to gather things ahead of time)...I lost things.....not just one thing, but, lots of things. After setting off the smoke alarms (not my fault), and my dogs bolting out of the house due to the beeping, two tries on the crust, $10 worth of pecans tossed in the chicken coop since I burned them.....my cheese cake is now setting.

I lost my pain pills after I put them somewhere safe...after I had a fit, I found them....in some other safe place....hmmm

maybe.... I am a bit overwhelmed with things like teething, and running out of diapers (no not me, my g-son).....sooooo,

Maybe the vitamin D will help.

We have "house people" who take things. When you ask for the missing thing back out loud, it usually reappears within 24 hours in a weird place.

I know you were kidding...but I'm not.

The stories I could tell you about the house people...I was alone at night. And all the power went out. And I'm afraid of the dark. And I had to go in the basement. And all the fuses were unscrewed.

25 years ago, we lived in an old farm house a half mile from the nearest neighbor. We rented it. My landlord told me every once in a while the windmill lets loose from its tether and screams.

OK so hubby is gone for a training session and I am alone with 4 young kids, in the middle of nowhere. (I shoulda thought about this when I was enchanted with the setting when looking at it.) Anyway, in the middle of the night, the windmill lets go and makes this horrible, loud screeching....scared the poo out of us, and landed all 4 of my kids in my bed and got me loading my rifle. I dunno know what I was gonna shoot.

Anyway, as if that wasn't bad enough.....the mercury light outside went off for no good reason....my lord, what a horrible nite. NOW, I can laugh at it.

Actually, the reason things are missing is my impending senility (but if any land were to be haunted, this is it....we are just 1200 meters from a national historic landmark park with an ancient not so mundane past) I am likely not far from an 'ancient Indian burial ground'....I KNOW the park is haunted, doesn't bother me to go there alone tho, just not at nite. Hubby and I have gone at night.

Oh MRSD....what is your thought on this...got a call from renal. The nephrologist says it is dRTA but I am not always running a low bicarb, even though with calculations, I am acidotic...so now I am really confused. She wants me to take the K, but says I don't need bicarb....(my feeling is acidosis IS the issue.) I am going to take a bit of bicarb daily, it likely won't kill me and likely will help. She said she is calling it dRTA secondary to the Sjogren's, my feeling is to test the half dozen or so genes....I am going to have that done. Even with a +ANA, my specific labs for SjS are still negative.

Blame it on the danged MEDS! The rest is stress-induced because you are on the meds and are not healthy!
You show that you've kept your common sense! Don't know about others? But that CS can get us further faster than any minds ours or super-docs combined!

Now, if your eyes started glowing orange like? Then, I'd get worried.
