NUTRITIONAL DEFICIENCY FOR RNYers INEVITABLE?

Does everyone with RNY eventually develop some sort of nutritional deficiency? I fear that because I am so young [just turned 20] that if I do have this procedure, I will one day have a nutritional deficiency, possibly multiple or major ones. If a person takes their vitamins and protein intake religiously and has their blood work annually, is the possibility of developing a deficiency still there?

 

I was 29 when I had my rny and am now almost 2yrs. out, and have had no deficiencies. I stay on top of all my labs and make sure I don't slack on my vitamins. Best of luck to you. Jenn.

 Thank you Jenn!

Thanks for asking that question.I just had my surgery a month ago.
