my RNY x girlfriend had this.... LONG STORY... I was a terrible friend and didn't support her with her RNY... and lost our friendship.  she was and is very sick. didn't take her vitamins, didn't eat right, ended up in HOSPital, MANY TIMES.  like I said. LONG story, but check this out.

AND YA, I'M BEING NEGATIVE FOR THOSE WHO THINK I SHOULDN'T SHARE THIS WITH MY FIRENDS. TO MAKE SURE THEY DON'T GET SICK......AND BY THE WAY i APPRECIATE ALL YOUR POSSITIVE COMMENTS

I've heard of this before.  It's pretty interesting and FOR SURE, something to be aware of!  A lot of us post-RNY'ers are anemic.  One of the many things to be on the look out for!
Thanks!

This is why I'm having a hysterectomy in a few weeks because being an RNY patient and having the fibroids I bleed so heavy that I can't control my anemia anymore.  I can't wait, December 9th and I'll never have to buy those damn femine articles again!!! 

Interesting article.
