Question:
I feel mentally
I am 15 months out and have gotten to where I feel like I am in a fog all the time. I take my vitamins religiously. Can you tell me what you did to help yourself? — Lisa J. (posted on March 7, 2003)

"Fog?" How are your labs doing? You should get a full workup
done at least every six months, including a check on your iron, B-12, and
calcium levels, and lots of related stuff ("stuff" being my
medical term for it, others can explain it much better -- things like
protein levels, albumin, CBCs, etc.). You can take your vitamins (whatever
regime you're using -- and that's another question), and still be someone
who needs adjustments based on how they're working (or not working) for
you. No good way to tell without labwork, though.

When you say in a "fog"...are you depressed? Or confused? Or all
of the above? :o)

This sounds like it may take your PCP and a good nutritionist to figure
this one out. What has been working for you all this time may need some
adjusting.
Our bodies change all of the time with or without WLS. I was taking the
same vitamins for years with not a problem, all of sudden I developed a
reaction to one of them. It is really odd and can be very consuming.
Good luck.
