Default Consider This...

Hi -

I dont take any separate vitamins because my only nutrition due to gastroparesis (basically a paralyzed stomach due to autonomic neruopathy that has damaged the nerves the cause digestion)..... is Ensure, a nutritional liquid supplement only - and it is pure vitamins... My stomach gets very upset if I try to take separate supplements - but my docs also tell me blood counts are ok in that area and that since the Ensure is pure nutrition I'm getting all the vitamins I need... I am seeing a nutritionalist next though - and she may have some suggestions.....

(I need to gain weight but cant digest fat - or eat ice cream or anything like that - so thats a challenge we're trying to deal with)
