Mine is all chewable that's what the dr told me to get. But my blood pressure meds are pills I just have to crush them. I'm doing good with everything else. Good luck :-)

i've taken all my meds since surgery. they're all pretty small, the ones I was worried about were the capsules since they are bigger, but dr said those are fine since they dissolve quickly. heck my pain meds were pretty good sized tablets, but the dr told be to break in half and they were fine.

when in doubt give your dr, or better yet their nurse a call

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
