I am five months post op and this has been bothering me for a while.

I spoke to a lady that has a sister who had wls. She was over 500 lbs. and is now under 200 lbs. She has health problems before her surgery and now more so then ever. She has a problem with absorbing vitamins and has osteoporosis very bad. She had a skeletal x-ray done and the doctors could not count the number of fractures she had because there were so many. I am now a little concerned about my own health and if this is common for post ops. I do takes my vitamins faithfully every day, but it does sit in the back of my mind wondering if I absorbing the proper amount of vitamins a day.
