Hi Jane,
Without a terminal ileum and colon, it sppears that u are in the same
sitation as mine.   It is comfortable to know that yu have been coping
it well healtwise.  As you appear to be knowledgeable and experience,
may I ask you the following questions:

a) what specific medical lab test you recommend me to do periodically
to check the vitamin or mineral levels?  For example, my doctor's
recent blood test showed that my B12 was OK, although it could be
because of the B12 stored in my body (known to be abt 3 yrs).

b) what good specific vitamin or mineral pills do you recommend?

I have asked my family doctor to let me see a GI doctor, but the
earliest appointment is 4.5 months away!

Thanks a lot.
