  1. After 11 years RNY I have now been advised I am pre diabetic with much the same symptoms as you. I struggle with eating out where alcohol is involved, parties & Christmas are a nightmare for me. I find myself having to go lay down until the spike episode passes. Tonigh I had a sugar spike after spare ribs, small jacket potato and salad ( it was the small amount of BBQ sauce on the ribs) Somethings can spike me one day and not another its trial and error. Hope you get it under control without too many dietary adjustments.
  2. I'm in the UK and I get a Vitamin B12 inoculation (prescribe by the Bariatric Surgeon) every 3 months for the rest of my life. It helps with the hair loss, fatigue and anemia too.
  3. Don’t worry. It is natural hair loss of 5-15% of your hair due to the stress of surgery and weight loss. It rarely lasts more than 6 months. It grows back.
  4. I find Peanut Butter on melba toast (thin tiny cracker like toast) good for getting in that extra Protein.
