Vitamin deficiencies

Normally when you go back for your post-op appointment they take 5 vials of blood to check just about everything

They do blood tests to check your levels. Testing for Vitamin D is very common but you have to ask to have your Calcium levels or B12 checked.

I guess it depends on the physician because my lab report was 5-6 pages long and both were included

Right. I had my surgery done in Mexico, so I go to my pcp for tests. A bariatric doctor would know what needs to be monitored.

I am six months post op and my doctor just took 9 vials of blood to test for everything! I am nervious I am going to have deficiencies because I haven't been great about taking my Vitamins. So scared...

Starting the super B12 liquid changed my life......I definitely have more energy to sustain me during the day.

I wanted to post a follow-up to my earlier post. I got my results back and have a Vitamin D deficiency. It was recommended I do 2000 mgs. I live in Chicago so gettin sun in the winter is not easy. But I thought I would share.
