B12, Iron Deficiency

Hi all,

My PCP did a pre-surgery blood panel and it shows I am deficient in B12 and Iron. She has me on supplements now. Does anyone know if this typically is a cause to reject surgery? I know that both of these issues can come up after surgery, but I haven't had surgery yet.

QG

    I was Iron deficient prior to surgery and continue to be low in iron at my 6 month blood test. My doctor switch me to a different iron supplement, Vitron C. We will see if this helps me. I didn't have any problem with surgery.

    Best of luck!
