Guest guest Posted November 11, 2000 Report Share Posted November 11, 2000 Hi All, I've got a couple of questions. Can anyone tell me if it's doable to be a vegetarian (i.e., get in all of your protein) after the surgery. Also, I was wondering if taking calcium via tums or calcium supplements can definitely prevent you from getting osteoporosis after the surgery. I'm esp. worried about this because my mom has had significant bone density loss in her old age. Till now I never worried about it because I love milk and drink a lot of it but this may not be a palatable thing for me after the surgery. In general I'm worried about nutritional/vitamin deficiencies post-op. Can anyone speak to my concerns? Thanks. Anita Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
