I am 21 years old. I am suffering from depression. I had my tests which showed that I had deficiency for calcium, vitamin D. Also my RBCs have increased slightly than normal. My HDL is 43 and LDL greater than 100. Also the ratio is 3.4. Can all of this be due to medications? I was put down on lithium without cause which I took for nearly a month after which new doctor advised to stop taking. Am I at risk?
