PhotoChic 70 Posted October 23, 2012 I think all surgeons are different cuz my Dr had me start my Vitamins at my first week post op visit he had me start the calcium' date=' multi vit, vitD, & B12 but I told him I was gonna start the Biotin also cuz I jus grew my hair out & im not tryna loose it.[/quote'] Yeah they all are different, cause even when I went for my two week check up yesterday, she reminded me to continue taking everything else, just not the Calcium until 6 wks. Now if wish I would of asked why only not that Vitamin. Anyway we all have to do what were told, cause they know whats best for us. SD: 10/10/12, Converted from Lapband to RNY, HW (before band) 263, HW (RNY) 230, Preop 219, after surgery 223, current 210 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Best of luck to every1, how have u been since ur surgery and can I ask why u decided to convert. I was thinking about the Band but heard bad things plus my doc said RNY was better with better results. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Clairpooh 53 Posted October 24, 2012 Update: hey everyone I am back in the hospital. This time they admitted me and I don't know how long they are keeping me. Today I feel the beat I've ever had since the surgery. The nurse even said im getting my color back. Tomorrow I have more test, they are still trying to figure out what's wrong. So far I've had an ultrasound, MRI, x-ray. On top of that they had to do a PICC Line because no one could get to another vain and my doctor wanted blood work done. Please keep me in your prays, I just want to feel normal again 3 cooksie, Immagetitdown12 and DrMomFlrs reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Definately makes all the difference in how I feel. I was late taking it tody and was dragging butt something fierce. Are we allowed to do the gummies? I thought they were said to clog the small portal to the intestines or something like that. I hope I heard wrong, because the calcium chews are NAAAAAASSSSTTTYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!

Centrum has an adult chewable. I'm actually taken fusion chewable right now. Sent from my SGH-T989 using RNYTalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
