Topic: Labs after DS

Would someone mind posting their labs after DS surgery? Do you have them every 6 months or yearly? I had it YEARS ago and honestly don't know which labs I should have done on a regular basis. The NP I go to doesn't always have me do the same ones. I'd like to take a list in to her and tell her "this is what is recommended".

:-)

Unfortunately the surgeon I had do the DS isn't in practice anymore, so I can't contact him.

Thank you in advance,

Bobbi

Topic: RE: Sugar Cravings!

Sounds like you need a good bowel movement and high protein diet to help kick those sugar cravings.

I hope you taking a strong enough probiotic to cleanse your system out every morning

Topic: RE: Anyone know of a multivitamin without B6?

Thank you SO much T.D.!! I knew that Desert Harvest had a no B6 B Complex, but I didn't know it had a multivitamin one!! I need this as I am avoiding B6 in order to lower my toxic high level, and this leaves many important nutrients off my diet!! So I certainly need a multivitamin. Thanks SO MUCH!!!! How long dis it take you to lower your B6 and feel normal again, if I may ask? :)

I found this attached link on the bottom for a multivitamin without B6. It says it's for athletes, hope it's for everyone. My B6 is high too!! Btw, I don't think yours became high from the meats you ate (I think you mentioned that as a possibility). Because it's usually highered by supplements only...

Oh my!!! I am high in B6 and I REALLY hope I don't have permanent damage!!! I even have swelling in the head. Not just problems with walking. And some swallowing issues...Lots of Neurologic and autonomic problems!! :( Doctors don't know much about this toxicity as usually people are low in B6, not high!!!

congratulations on your surgery....take it slow, keep sipping walking, drink protein shakes...etc

wishing you a speedy recovery so you can enjoy your kids!

If you have a specific question for me, PM me or I will not see it, as I don't check responses on the forums and don't have anything forwarded to my email.
