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.  |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass  | I too was on vitamin D pre-op. I don't take it right now because my other supplements have it. I guess it's supposed to be between 32 and 100 (with 80 being optimal) and mine was 14 or 15! When I get more blood work we'll see how it is.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | I am also on Vitamin D once a week also. Been like that since I think 3 months out. I asked the same question you did and they told me its from the sun. My surgons office told me its common for WL patients to have this problem. I go back in a few months to get rechecked but I do take the extra vitamin D once a week also.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | It did seem like in the begining I was taking so many things. But over time I have come off of alot of my stuff. It does get easier but the one thing I take my surgone told me I need to take it for life. But I dont mind. Im so much better off now than I was 10 months ago.
