Guest guest Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 Hello everyone. I am , still preop. Do you all know who Vitalady () is? She has a vitamin shop and has great deals. So I got some labs done recently, suppose to be my 3 year RnY labs. Yeah I am a revision. So I asked Vitalady about vitamin D, which if y ou all don't know, everyone is low on D as a general rule. So my D was 27. 33 is considered low normal. But Vitalady says to bring it up to 70, and of couse, with the DS we malabsorb more D. So she told me to buy 50,000 IU of Vitamin D and use that once a day for a month, then go to 10K IU every day till my surgery (I, unfortunately, have no date yet). 7 days postop go back to 50K a day. She also told me that our B12 should be like over 2,000. Mine was 1,000, and the lab sheet said that 974 was the top normal. Vitalady said we are born with B12 at 2000, and also being over 50, I need the B12 even more to be up there. So, my question to you all bright people, and Dee if you read this, answer me too, can I take 50K of D for a month, and 10K of D every day till surgery, and 50 a day starting 7 days postop until I get my first labs done? Can I take like 5000 of B12 daily to bring it up to over 2K? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
