Wow. That's crazy. You should be taking a B12 pill every week. It gives you energy.(:

You should ask your pcp to run some blood work. TSH ( thyroid), vit d level, cbc to ck your Iron level. Even though we shouldn't be Vitamin deficient since we asorb our nutrients you may want to get checked for those. Hope you feel better soon.

I was told to take a Multivitamin (Flintstones is my choice) and B12 every day.. Vitamin D is recommended if you are not out in the Sun much.. (fortunately I live in Fla.) I have good energy.

try it and you will see a difference.

You need to ask your doctor about this...... or at least his nurse or dietician. Let us know what they say. Everybody's doc is different.

I get labs drawn in the morning to see if I'm low on anything

My doc had me on a multivitamin since before my surgery and I have to continue taking it. I wasn't told to take B12. I will ask on my next visit because I'm tired quite a bit lately myself. Thanks for the tip.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
