I'm not too sure if this is where I should ask this but.....

Since my surgery, my hands have been very shaky. Not to low sugars or bad nutrition or anything like that. All is really good.

I'm not losing weight to fast, all blood work is done and looks great. My surgery was on Jan 17, 17.

Has anyone out there experience and does it get better? Or anything that made it better?

Thank you for listening, worries me sometimes when I try and do fine detail of something and my hands start to shake. Some days are better then others.

And no there is no history in my family of Parkinson's or anything. Like I said, it happened not to long after the surgery. Within the 1st or 2nd week.

This article describes shaky hands and some of the causes. http://www.webmd.com/brain/shaky-hands#1

One of the causes listed in the article was a lack of B12. Vitamin B12 is very important after surgery. My surgeon recommended 500 to 1000 micrograms sublingual B12 daily or 1000 mcg B12 injection once monthly. When this vitamin is taken sublingual, it is placed under the tongue until it dissolves. Anyways it is worth double checking to make sure you are getting this very important vitamin.

Thank you for your reply. All my blood levels came back good, we just went over them yesterday. I was very Thankful that they were all good. I do take the B12 in a shot monthly.

It is such a strange thing. Thank you for getting back to me.

      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.
