ok... i am a bit late reading this topic.... but want to add something ;)


on this hand 2 lanula (and getting smaller in time), the other hand only my thumb
very interesting, i never noticed it but i remember before i got sick i had beautiful nails with lanula on each nail
i have ridges too(not very deep) but can't see them on the photo because of the nailpolish ;)
 (i am 28)

she picked up that I 'was not absorbing minerals well' due to having no moons on my fingers and only tiny ones on my thumbs

do you also have low mineral in bloodtests?
i am currently seeing a doctor who is surprised to see my vitaminlevels are HIGH (i really want to see the results on paper, can't believe it! the last 7 years i didn't take supplements and i have had many low vitaminlevels since i got sick) and in the bloodtests my copper (don't know if it is the correct english word, but i think it is called free (unbound) copper) is high! now they are doing more bloodtests, they want to make sure i don't have Wilson's disease and more tests

i think i have POTS but didn't have it tested (i will in a few months)
