Hi everyone. I'm trying to get everything in order before I leave for Mexico & was wondering if you can take supplements during your liquid phase? If so what kind? chewable, capsules etc.?

Thanks a bunch!!

I had soluble Vitamins and I ground up my Nexium and took it with liquid... although it tasted foul ground up.... did that until 1 wk post op when I then split it in 2 and tok it like that.

I was told to start chewable and siblingual supplements on Day 3 post-op.

I was told I could start the chewables right away, but that it wouldn't hurt to wait a couple of weeks if I was more comfortable with that. I think I started maybe 10-12 days out but still let them dissolve in my mouth rather then chew up and swallow dry hard pieces. And that chocolate chewy Calcium was (and still is!) such a treat!

My surgeon suggested I wait 30 days...
