| Re: Me again! is anemia common in CF?
I know they do a lot of tests on DS's blood to see how his vitamin levels are, blood sugar, as well as hemoglobin.
Because a lot of CFers have malabsorption issues, they require extra vitamins -- DS has liquid vitamin drops called ADEKs (A,D, E & K), plus he gets a vitamin K tablet once a week and I put a drop of A & E in his chocolate milk once a day. He's not on vitamins with iron yet, but his dietician mentioned the possibility once he's a little older.
