HI!
I know this past week several of you said my Neuropathy pain could be coming from lack of vitamins because of my Gastric Bypass. My husband and I have wondered about that but most of my tests came back ok......except for the Carnitine, Vit. D and B12.....which I've increased in the past 4 months since all this pain started.
Yesterday in the Science Daily newletter, it had an article about this very subject: http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases...0525210340.htm
It says that even after upping the dose of these vitamins and supplements the Neuropathy continues
I'm going to talk to my Rheumatologist about all this on Monday.....but today.....I'm totally depressed about the whole thing
I originally had Gastric Bypass because several dr.s said that having that done would help with my servere acid reflux (which caused my Barrett's Esophagus) Needless to say...it didn't help at all. I now sleep sitting up in an adjustable bed.
Since my Gastric Bypass I've had to deal with one health issue after another...tho I did lose weight and no longer have high blood pressure and the Osteo Arthritis in my knee is much better....it's hard to weigh the odds as to if it was worth all the bad results or not...........Roxie
