  1. ugh, I need advice. i was supposed to have the sleeve but after meeting with the surgeon he recommended the gastric bypass because of my very long history of acid reflux. He said that it could be complicated by having the sleeve. my surgery date is dec 12. He ordered an upper endoscopy to make sure there is not already permanent damage, now my dilema. I have a horrific cold, cough, sneeze, runny nose and sore throat. Any advice how to rush this cold out of my system so it does not show false inflamation. thanks for all advice and good luck to everyone on this journey.

      Zinc works for me. Although I have not had so much as the sniffle since surgery and taking post-op vitamins and supplements, pre-op I got some at the drugstore. Also Cold Eaze has worked well for me in the past. I also have opted to take zinc, chromium, vitamin C, and vitamin E on my own since surgery. My multi is Bariatric Advantage AE which I call my horse pill stink-a** vitamin.
