KellyErnst Posted August 12, 2006 Report Share Posted August 12, 2006 Has anyone been told they are copper deficient. I am waiting on lab results from 24 Hr urine test to see if my boby is not absorbing copper correctly. Previous test have shown I am copper deficient so I have been taking a copper supplement for months and repeated lab test still show copper deficiency.

lthomas521 Posted August 12, 2006 Report Share Posted August 12, 2006 Are you taking a zinc supplement? That could interfere with copper.http://www.diagnose-me.com/cond/C542179.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lthomas521 Posted August 13, 2006 Report Share Posted August 13, 2006 Hm. Could it interfere? Let us know if they figure out the copper problem. It's an interesting one. Is anyone else in your family sick? Metabolic errors tend to run in families. But if it is recessive, you might be the only one you know of who has it.
