Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | okay being i am anemic and have to take iron..... it was told to me from another community member that i may not be takeing my iron right so i wanted to quote her and pass this information on to you guys: I'm thinking you may have been taking not the right iron for you or not enough of it or not taking it properly, so moving to the right dose and type might help. Here's the iron rules: 1. iron always with vit C (cheap kind, not ester) alone together for at least one hour (ok with fruit or veggie) 2. iron is never taken with caffeine, dairy, egg or whole grain 3. never with any other vites, minerals or meds 4. remember, alone together for at least an hour (the rule for normies is 2 hrs) okay so i pretty much was taking my vitamin proly less then an hour before breakfast...and alot of days i have eggs...so could this be my mistake????????? hmmmm! i will remember these rules.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | Yes Lisa my Rx bottle tells me the same thing. Its almost like it has to be taken alone in its own spot. This is one pill I dont like taking. |

| What mg are you taking? My surgeon has me at 150 and boy do I get constipated. I end up taking it every couple of days instead of every day. I go in for my 6 month check up in two weeks and plan on asking about a lower dose.
