I was sleeved June 29, 2011 and have had many complications but now I'm having vitamin deficiencies like vitamins ADEK & I also have ketones in my urine..My dr said I'm very malnourished..I can only eat so much..What is going on???

Are you taking a multi vitamin supplement ?

I am deficient in potassium, Vit D and B12. I really think some of us are more prone to it., Make sure you are taking a good multivitamin. Are you experiencing hair loss?

At three months out, I was only difficient in vitamin D and they gave me a script for 50K mu of D that I take once a week. I chew a flintstones multi with iron and eat protein first. I take a vit b12 sublingual a few times a week too. Are you taking a multi and are they giving you stronger vitamins since you need them?

Make sure your taking on a DAILY BASIS 1) multi vitamins, 2)vitamin D and ask doctor how many units, I take 5k a day it doesn't hurt. 3)calcium 1k a day, the vitamin shopp brand I take is 4 pills = 1k, and 4)B12 lingual I take 2500 daily. And then your proteins every day is crucial. I'm 5 months post op so I'm at 80-90g a day of proteins.
