I was able and doc said it was OK to take pills after surgery,as long as there not to big, and able to swallow with little sips of water, if taking pill scares you sometimes there is a liquid form for medications

Are you using Iron dextrin? I have just started my infusions,.takes about 3 hours for me but everyone else about an hour ,my hematologist wanted me in twice a week,b it I only go once week, it will continue for 6 weeks then a full blood panel to see if my numbers improve,a and I feel crappy after the infusions Sent from my LGLK430 using the BariatricPal App

I have started infusions, I hope I can try to help the % is the total Iron in the red blood cells and the ferritin is the Protein that stores extra iron and b12 helps make red blood cells so it's very important to keep them both normal, however I am no longer able and will have to get infusions for life, unfortunately for me my levels and back up supply are practically depleted, my hematologist is being very aggressive in my treatments Sent from my LGLK430 using the BariatricPal App

I am 9months post op from bariatric surgery #3 subtotal gastrectomy with RNY gastrojejunostomy, I have started Iron infusions 3weeks ago, my hematologist strongly suggested I come in twice a week for 6weeks but I am only going once a week, it's takes about 3 hours from the time I walk in to when I leave, and I feel like crap after, and I also have to give myself B 12 injections once every 2 weeks, my suggestion to anyone who starts showing signs of anemia or B12 deficiency should take it seriously and see a hematologist, better to treat it early then what I'm going through, Sent from my LGLK430 using the BariatricPal App

I'm not a year out yet, from my revision, I have had all 3 Bariatric surgeries, in the last 11 years, do to complications, I am now anemic and was told that I will need an iron infusion and I also give myself a b12 shot every 2 weeks, how did you feel after the infusion ?

Its not the coffee or tea the Drs dont want you to have its the caffeine. It is a diuretic. Your first month is all about sipping on Water and Protein. Caffeine could dehydrate you in the early stages of surgery hope this helps and no its not forever Sent from my LGLK430 using the BariatricPal App

I went 12 days after surgery, I tried almost everything,but I may have had a tiny blockage, I became nauseous at the same time, first day normal 2nd day not so normal more liquid than solid , but that may have been from the stool softener and whatever else I took to help me go, my nurse said as long as I wasn't in pain that it will happen and I'll be ok

Our stomach and intestines are healing and angry , I do have very bad burning in the am , unfortunately this is normal , and I am on Pepcid for at least 6 months to a year, I'm 2 weeks post RNY , I was also sleeved and was also given antacids after that surgery

Miralax or smooth move tea seam to be a big hit on a few of the forums

I never crushed any of my pills
