Melissa, I am also delighted to hear your news.?
Please continue to let us know how you are doing.
Are you doing any "de-colonization" on a regular basis?

That is gret news! I'm glad that your life is back to normal.

Do you mind sharing how much vitamin D the doctor prescribed, and

for how long you took it before your surgery? Also, did they test

your vitamin D levels?



Thanks, and congratulations!
