Hey Val - my daughter has had her J-pouch surgery. The takedown was August 10th. I am going to remember the vitalyte and see if I can get some, she drinks a lot of gatorade, although the G2 version, but it can be hell on your teeth regardless. She does drink protein juice boxes. She keep having hair issues, she had started to finally get back hair on her head but now it's starting to fall out again. She has the worst diet for a Jpouch, but she is 21 and short of me force feeding her what she should be eating there is little I can do. She does not have pancreatitis, her blood work is very normal. Now she is going for an ultrasound. I have some thoughts about her pain, but will see what happens with the ultrasound. We forge on. Despite her pain she is on the treadmill almost every day and does get to her classes. She's a tough cookie, just wish she ate better foods.
