This may have been posted on OH already (sorry), but here is a link to an article that may be of interest to all WLS patients, "Perioperative management of bariatric surgery patients: Focus on metabolic bone disease" from the May 2008 Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine. 

It has an interesting case study on a RNY patient who has metabolic bone disease, but is presenting with common symptoms of fatigue, etc.

Interesting article.  It looks like the medical community is finally catching up with what Vitalady has been telling us all along. Michele
