I had my sleeve 12/28 and have had no complications, in fact I feel almost 100%. Prior to the sleeve I had a 1 hour teleconference with my Doctor's dietitian where we reviewed all the Vitamins etc I would need to take, plus she sent me a 50 page attachment which also describes the same. On my release from the hospital, they also reviewed what I will need to take. Now comparing notes there are inconsistencies between the 3. I know I have to take a Multivitamin, Calcium (citrate), Vit D and B12.
Hospital said 3000 mg B12 sub-lengual, the book says 500, neither says what kind of Vit D (as I recall there were several), but do not know quantity of units, ditto for Calcium, not sure how much.
Can anyone help me to set up a daily regimen of exactly what to take and how much?
