Thiamin vs copper deficiency

[Guest guest]

I have a pt 3 months post-op bypass (had a stricture? at 1 month post-

op) and she c/o N/V ever since. The MD is working on that part of

things. The problem is she says she vomits the majority of her vit/min

supplement up. Now she comes in c/o tingling in leg/hip area, pain in

abdomen, poor night vision, fatigue. Do I need to give her IV thiamin,

thiamin injection, and/or thiamin pills (which she may vomit up

anyways)? And how much? Or, could this be copper? The blood tests

won't be back for a week! Thank You!!!! --
