Re: (no subject) Vita4Life, Gall Bladder & Pre-Op Tests

[Guest guest]

Mia,

Thanks for responding. I saw Liz at Mt. Sinai. She really painted a

negative picture in terms of vitamin supplements. I am concerned about

something else and please anyone else who is reading this that is post -op

respond. Dr. Herron said that on the average I would have 5-6 bowel

movements a day. Do most of you find this to be true? I am concerned

because I teach kindergarten and there is no way I can run to the bathroom

that often. Also, are the BM controlable? I understnd the smell and texture

will be different but will I still be able to carry on a " normal " life?

I'm a mental health professional and much of my time is seeing

patients for 30 or 60 minute appointments. I have *never* had to

leave an appointment to use the toilet. It is a rare day that I do

not complete my BMs prior to leaving the house in the morning.

I am fortunate in this regard.
