Guest guest Posted June 8, 2002 Report Share Posted June 8, 2002 Theresa- We all malabsorb with a RNY. You've been malabsorbing since day 1. Don't know that your doctor understands this, or maybe he is trying to tell you that you are deficient in some nutrient. You may need to add a supplement. ? What might she need to add for bruising?

I went to the dr today and I have lost a total of 132 lbs and he put me a new med for my back its called Bextra new antiflamitory medication suppose to be better than vioxx and something else,,, and then we discussed the bruising and such and he feels I might be Malaborping. HMMMMMMM, I dunno know why but I don't have a fear of this, its like I don't think i am but I read up on some stuff just now and I have all the signs but not fearing it. Maybe I should worry??
