Ceruloplasmin and copper levels

It looks like everyone else here has already given some pretty smart answers to your question, so I just wanted to add one more thing to the mix: have you been taking any (adeno)corticosteroids lately?
Everything else seems to be covered.
I am so sorry for being a little slow to get back to you in our private messages.
I figured I would post this on the public forum so that anyone else struggling with similar issues can benefit from the info too.
Are you experiencing any specific symptoms? Things like neuropathy, hypochromic anemia, low blood pressure, neurological deficits, osteoporosis, or maybe issues with connective tissue?
I was wondering if someone could help explain how polyneuropathy links up with a copper deficiency and low ceruloplasmin levels, and what role corticosteroids play in all of that.
Thanks so much!
