Topic: RE: Weird med cond? anyone else???
Realize with our revised plumbing...the likelihood of absorbing vitamin A from food sources is probably quite slim. Rich had 0 vitamin A on one of his first labs after surgery. Yup... 0. He takes 5,000 mcg per day I believe and all is well since. Vitamin A is one you wouldn't want to supplement with unless you knew you were low.
Vitamin A rich foods:
liver
sweet potatoes
carrots
mangoes
spinach
cantaloupe
dried apricots
milk
egg yolks
mozzarella cheese
Alcohol, coffee, or excessive iron can all deplete your body's supply of this essential vitamin.
The chief cause of styes is stress so with your busy business and lack of sleep - that might be more the problem.
Hope you feel better soon!

Sigh.... I know.
But did I tell you how much I HATE the gym? It's on campus... All a bunch of freaking jocks and divas... There's one girl, I swear she's like a size 0, Barbie... walks around like she owns the place, with about 6 guys following around drooling... I know I should be beyond that. And it's hysterical to watch the reaction of the other "mere mortals" when she walks by, but still... she makes me want to puke... Shallow, I know, but hey, I'm human... 
I'm gonna go... I really am. But I'm gonna whine about it some more, first...

Glad to hear Rich is feeling better, you were both on my mind all weekend... Also glad you had a good time, as well, although the weather thing sucks...
Was your sister surprised?

Yep, I'm proud to say that I've walked 2 nights in a row (ok, so, baby steps, okay?) and am contemplating going to the gym tomorrow night... I really don't wanna go... I hate going to the gym. By myself... A bunch of 20 year old hard-bodies doing a fashion walk... But, I really want to start back to doing some weight training... only 98 days left before my PS...

You ladies are sooo smart!!! Okay heres another question..what foods have vitamin "a" in them?? I take alot of supplements.I just got back from my primary care doc they said it probably was a bacterial infection.Gave me a shot of a steriod in my fanny and gave me an oral antibiotic.My gastric doc moved to Alabama I know most primary care docs arent too familiar with us gastrics.I also said I have been having issues with sleeping and staying asleep I wonder if that has anything to do with vitamin "a" also??? They gave me restoril and lunesta to try ..just hate taking meds you know.Thanks for the imput.I totally would love to crawl into bed and rest now but I have to work
