Doing research and there's so many brands and types of vitamins for post op. What's your favorite? What's the worst? Anyone try the vitamin patches? Any insight would be really helpful! Sent from my Pixel using BariatricPal mobile app

How does your insurance cover them? Do you have to do an application? Sent from my Pixel using BariatricPal mobile app

I'm in about the same situation, looking for the same answer. I'm torn between the two surgeries. My mom had the bypass about five years ago, and she lost all her weight but deals with a lot of kidney stone issues and malabsorption problems. I'm thinking about the sleeve for these reasons, but I'm also a sugar/carb a holic and I think the dumping syndrome would help, but mom didn't really have that and she's a sugar person too. Gerd hasn't been a big issue for us either. Is sleeve a better option? Sent from my Pixel using BariatricPal mobile app

Why did they say no pre op diet? I've never heard of that happening Sent from my Pixel using the BariatricPal App
