Wow. That's crazy. You should be taking a B12 pill every week. It gives you energy.(:

You should ask your pcp to run some blood work. TSH ( thyroid), vit d level, cbc to ck your Iron level. Even though we shouldn't be Vitamin deficient since we asorb our nutrients you may want to get checked for those. Hope you feel better soon.

I was told to take a Multivitamin (Flintstones is my choice) and B12 every day.. Vitamin D is recommended if you are not out in the Sun much.. (fortunately I live in Fla.) I have good energy.

try it and you will see a difference.

You need to ask your doctor about this...... or at least his nurse or dietician. Let us know what they say. Everybody's doc is different.

I get labs drawn in the morning to see if I'm low on anything

My doc had me on a multivitamin since before my surgery and I have to continue taking it. I wasn't told to take B12. I will ask on my next visit because I'm tired quite a bit lately myself. Thanks for the tip.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
