wingedtamila 9 Posted January 25, 2017 Can I ask please? Was she really tired and fatigued. Sent from my SCH-S968C using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rking 484 Posted January 25, 2017 oh my gosh. it was horrible. as a matter of fact, her bloodwork is all good now and she is still extremely fatigued. infusions were about 8 months ago. now she has headaches every day. we dont really think it has anything to do with her Iron or surgery now, we just dont have a clue what is causing all this.

YOU need to get on them now if you are not already!!!! I get mine from a a company that has prescription B12 nose spray, and it is done weekly. They give you a multi Vitamin, calcium/D Vitamins with it. It costs $25 a month and they are excellent Vitamins. You can get pills or chewable. You can google Nascobal. That is the nose spray. I started my Vitamin regimen before I even had surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
