Default test results

My repeat ANA titer came back at 1:160 (half of what it was). According to person who told me the results (won't get physical copy of report for a few weeks), everything else rheumatologic was negative. I've got a Rheum appointment in September (first available - crazy, right?) but I think that's a rabbit hole.

My B6 level was "mildly elevated," at 57 when this lab's range has 22 as a high. That sounds more than mildly elevated (3X the high), but what do I know. I've been taking a multi [B6 = 2mg], but no other supplementation. I will stop the vitamin today. I do eat a lot of the foods that are high in B6 tho - nuts, beans, chicken, spinach.

I don't eat processed foods and thought they were healthier options. If I'm feeling this miserable b/c of eating healthily, I'm damn-well switching to mac & cheese with brownies & ice-cream for dessert. I'm sure this will be retested in 6 months or so, and I suspect it will be another rabbit hole. I'm not lucky enough to have something easy to treat.
