I had a voicemail from the dieitician when I returned from vacation and finally we were able to touch base today...

Turns out my iron & hemoblobin which was already low before is now LOWER and my Vitamin A is very low also!

I am taking my vitamins and so confused! I thought this wasn't very likely to happen to VSGers as long as they took their vitamins! I take the RNY dosage of vitamins as it is....now I have to add MORE iron plus 10, 000 IU's of Vitamin A!

It can happen...some people are just vitamin deficient. I take my vitamins everyday and my B12 shot the beginning of every month. I am still deficient. Just happens sometimes.
