We all go through it. You are consuming fewer calories than you have in the past. I still have it occasionally.

Also, are you on any blood pressure meds? If so, they may be too strong for you, can you take your blood pressure easily? I had to discontinue one of two blood pressure meds at 3 weeks post op because my blood pressure had dropped significantly. Keep us posted and good luck!!

Low Iron can cause those symptoms although what you get in the Flintstone complete should be plenty.

I did find this online about Multivitamins with iron: Avoid taking antacids, dairy products, tea, or coffee within 2 hours before or after this medication because they will decrease its effectiveness.

That was news to me. It seems like just when I think I have this Vitamin thing figured out (with food, without food, don't combine this or that) I find out something new. I guess I need a chart!

Can your Dr. do blood work to test for low levels of Vitamins or minerals?

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
