Flintstone chewables were recommended. I take one at night and one in the a.m.

I had gastric bypass and hiatal hernia surgery on 3/20. My surgeon discovered the hernia while doing the bypass. The recommended post-op diet and physical activity limitations were as was already prescribed for the bypass.

I had a similar reaction from my cardiologist. Nice guy and an excellent doctor. He just didn't think I was "fat enough" to go the bariatric surgery route. I'm 70-75 pounds over a maximum healthy weight, pre-diabetic, sleep apnea , knee and ankle joints that are killing me, and borderline high blood pressure. Guess I could have gain an additional 25 or more pounds to be"fat enough" and sick enough before making this well-thought-about decision to live the rest of my life (I'm 66 years old) being as heathy as possible. My gastric bypass surgery is scheduled for next Monday (March 20).

March 20th. One week away!
