You might want to try the BioSil, too. I use that as well, and it really makes a different for hair, skin and nails. It comes in capsules and drops.

One more thing..... BioSil isn't Biotin. It's different, so it's not overkill to use both.

I get mine at Walgreen. But I see it at any pharmacy type place. I get little soft capsules but I have no problem taking pills if I am not trying to eat at the same time. I take it with my Ice tea or coffee.

still having issues, ugh! to the above poster, I do take a multi but forget sometimes to take it. I am increasing my Biotin. I did see it yesterday at GNC in dissolveables flavored. I get mine at Walmart.< /p>

The hairloss is Telogen Effluvium a side effect of trauma or a shock to your system including anesthesia and rapid wt loss. It happened to me starting at 2 mos post op and lasted almost until 6mos post op. It's horrifying. The good news is it does slow down then pretty much stop. Nothing you take will stop the cycle. You just have to let it run its course. Hang in there.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
