Anatomical Diagram by DX

There was a post months ago by (I think) DX that was an anatomical drawing of our post RNY insides.  It showed the by-passed intestine labeled with the vitamins and minerals that are normally abosrbed in that area and went to show the other intestines and what is absorbed there.   Does anyone have that diagram and if so could you email it to me at wayneandjen at sbcglobal . net or do you know how I can contact DX?

I wasn't the one who posted it, but I have a sketch.  In short: protein iron calcium vites A, D, E B1 B12 zinc For starters.  Response from me is faster at my email [email protected]

I have a copy of it, let me find it.

Thanks, the diagrams that Butterfly posted are great but I wanted the one that was created by Dx b/c of the labeling with vitamins and such.  I'll watch my email- thanks again.

After surgery, food is redirected so that it bypasses (see shaded areas) most of your stomach and the first section of your small intestine (duodenum). Food flows directly into the middle section of your small intestine (jejunum), limiting absorption of calories.

Hi Darlene,

Dx actually replied to a message I posted on the men's board.  So I have it now.

Thanks!
