Anyone on here had a low inorganic phosphate blood test result (hypophosphotemia)? I had a panel of bloods done recently and my phosphorus was low. Not hugely low, about 5% below the reference range. I don’t remember it being tested previously. I wondered how common a finding this is amongst people with ME?
I am very severely affected and have trouble taking small amounts of certain supplements. Now wondering if this could be a reason why. I am a vegetarian but I am going to up my dairy intake to try and boost my phosphorus. I just don’t know why it is low. I supplement with vitamin D3 although it was very low before supplementing a couple of years ago.
@Mary I am tagging you because you have spoken about low phosphorus on the forum. Did you ever test low and do you know if this is unusual?
