Shakiness, as in almost weak.

Easy bruising.

Most likely, iron deficiency.

The easy bruising could be vitamin K deficiency, but that would not likely cause shakiness.

Possibly B12, but if you're not dead tired and really depressed too, then it's probably not that.

It's also always a possibility that two symptoms that begin around the same time are not caused by the same thing and it's just coincidence that both started at this time.

Thank you...I had thought they might each be caused by something different.

I'm not exhausted or depressed.

I have a follow up in a few weeks.  I will have labs done to see if there is something out of whack.

I have had pernicious anaemia (lack of intrinsic factor) for 20 years (long before RNY) and have never been diagnosed or treated for depression ...

It could be anemia, your blood levels could be to low. I would get your hemaglobin and hematocrit checked along with what Kelly has said.

Good luck
