This is really interesting about copper. I can't believe after being through so many doctors for the past 5 months no one thought to look for this until this new doc. The info is out there. I guess it's just too new.

Get your copper checked!

I've only been taking the 2mg that my dr. told me to take for about 18 days, and I don't have any good news yet. I feel like there is some hope though.

Absorption of copper may be blocked by common drugs used to treat heartburn. Because the use of these is increasing daily as formerly RX drugs go OTC... we may see the "rare" copper deficiency become more common. A telltale sign of this deficiency is anemia that does not respond to iron alone.
