hi
At 4 months out I posted about my vision that was so much worse than before the surgery.lately my eyes have been red a lot and feels quite dry as well.
Quite a few people said that they have found it too but dont know why.My dr said I was getting old and needed glasses..lol
Well,while testing for other issues I am having (I've been getting these point bleeds called petechiae on my trunk and my legs,my hands peel all the time,my mouth inside peels all the time) I asked him to test my vit A as well.He didnt want to at first as he says no one really goes low on A.
It came back VERY LOW!
So,if you think your vision is worse than before the sleeve,test your vit A.It might be low.
Now Im going to make him test my vit C as my other issues might stem from low C,simple to fix if you know what it is,very scary if you cant find the answers.
