Guest guest Posted September 12, 2003 Report Share Posted September 12, 2003 Hi Gang! I'm a year post-op (June 10, 2002), and lately (the last several months) I've noticed that I simply can NOT grow my nails. They consistently break and split (usually toward the middle) just as they get past the tip of my finger. Is anyone here familar with this, or know the cause? I was tempted to get fake nails, but besides the cost of fills every few weeks, I also recall the condition of my nails when they finally came off (this was a few years ago), and I figure that it wouldnt help this situation at all in the long run. Nutritionally, I have 3 protein shakes a day, a prenatal chewable vitamin, sublingual B12, synthryoid and celexa. I'm a proximal open RNY (if that makes any difference). Any information would help. I'm going to cross post this to some other groups as well. Thanks in advance, felicia " To grow, you must be willing to let your present and future be totally unlike your past.
