Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

well from my own experience.......
i would say no its not the cold......

when the tired hit me last spring i ignored it
blamed it on working to much, watching obabies.
it was not from that...

LO b12 and the anemia

kicked my ass.

i would if you have recently gotten a b12 shot do it.
probably will make u feel much better.
i really doubt its the cold weather my
just my opinion however.

well it snuck up on me and honestly
the supplements b12 dont seem to get
my levels up or maintain them
the shots are the only way to gooo.

all i know is i wished i had realized sooner
i was blameing everything but the real thing
and it totally sucked and ruined my summer
i never had energy.
then being rundown thats y i got hit with the
shingles....
all was related

If you don't mind my asking, Who prescibed the B12 shots and what are you taking for the anemia, I'm only 7 weeks out from surgery and am always really tired. My husband just thinks I'm being lazy but the truth is that I have no energy and the littlest exertion makes me really tired and in need of a nap. Pre surgery I was a little anemic, but nothing bad and they said I had enough in reserves to go ahead with the surgery, but now I'm just really beat, and I'm worried about going back to work, at this pace I'll need a freakin nap every 2 hours. I have a follow up visit with my surgeon tom. and I'm gonna ask for a little more time off, till I'm feeling better. I think my immune system is shot too because over the last month I have had the flu and really bad sinus congestion that just lingers on and on...

i got my b12 at my pcp. i have never been deficient in iron, at least not yet. but your regular doc or your surgeon should be able to check your levels to determine if you need the shot. it works WONDERS!!!

I had some anemia prior to my hysterectomy but it wasnt a problem after that. Immediately post op I was exhausted all the time. I felt like a baby-sleep, drink, .... well you know LOL! My surgeon gave me my B12 Rx when I left the hospital and I get them once a month. No one has ever ck'd my level but I'm doing fine, but then, I havent missed my shot....
