I'm afraid of dying - just updated my will.

I'm afraid of failing at this...like every other thing I have tried.

I'm afraid of complications that will make me have to remove the band and then I can't afford a revision surgery.

I'm afraid of being laid off and not being able to afford the payments for this surgery.

Lastly - I am afraid of spiders!!!!

How much Biotin is recommended per day?

I need to get clarification on this, too.

On pages 65-66 of the Forest Park Medical Center Manual that was posted here on Springers, it states "Nioxin Shampoo can be used to help and/or Biotin supplements (50 to 100 mcg per day)."

I finally was able to find Biotin today at Target. One tablet has 1000 mcg (1 mg). The directions on the bottle say to take one tablet daily, preferably with a meal.

I asked my surgeon's NP about Biotin when we had the small group meeting, and she said it's fine to take Biotin, but she didn't say how much to take.

Hopefully, Julie might be able to help us.

I googled Biotin and found a lot of information. Here's a link what I found at WebMD:
