thank you so much! I really appreciate all of your help throughout this process!

One more thing I forgot to ask about was calcium. I was instructed when I had my sleeve gastrectomy to have 1500 mg of calcium citrate per day.

Is this okay during treatment?

thank you again! I hope it is because I’ve been taking it and totally forgot about it as a supplement.

The main ones I want to continue taking are Collagen, Glucosamine /chondroitin and gelatin. I really feel that these have been helpful with my arthritis. My fingers used to lock up all the time and would be stuck and I couldn’t bend them. Since I have taken these, this went away. My rheumatologist felt they would also be helpful with the pain in my knees.

My gastroenterologist put me on milk thistle years ago and I wondered if I should continue this since he felt it was helpful for my liver. I wondered if this is why my biopsies were all a number 1 when they rated them and they were done at 3 years after the diagnosis and then repeated 7 years after that. All 3 biopsies were the same.

Also, I feel I should continue my vitamins because of my sleeve gastrectomy, I don’t absorb everything from food and my meals are very tiny. I take b12 and D

I already purchased the medication. I have already paid for it. I don’t imagine it can be returned.

I normally take Protonix at bedtime, around midnight.

Do I need to have my dr. send in another prescription to add to what has been sent to me? I have a 12 week supply of HEPCVIR L

What should I do?
