:help:B1 Thiamine Deficiency--does anyone have this???

Hi Monica, I too think I have a thiamine deficency as I too vomited for months...first related to complications...strictures,and a gastrogastric fistula that was repaired at 3 weeks post op,I then started vomiting in feb and the source was traced to a massive hernia that was pressing on my distal stomach. I had my hernia repair and I am able to eat normal now Ok so for a while I had symptoms of dizzyness,numbness,unilateral loss of foot usage,weakness in hands. I saw the Doc at Kaiser that oversees the post ops. Well he tested me for(concern about Dry Beriberi- thiamine deficency(still waiting for results) I started taking B1 and in a week I started to get some of the movement back in my left foot. Could very well be thiamine deficency..but easy fix Lisa
