I've just had my book of test results filled in for the last 6-9 months :oops: as I'm still getting used to the system of my new surgery.
The reason I'm telling you all is because it's clear that opting to eat a small amount of meat has made a huge difference.
You may remember I kept having low haemoglobin levels when I didn't eat meat at all despite gobbling spinach, dried apricots, nuts etc. I don't like meat but, since I decided to eat some weekly, my haemoglobin levels have gone from not acceptable to perfectly OK.
Incidentally, my ALT levels remain ridiculously low. Clearly I'm drinking nowhere near enough alcohol

If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.
