TrueBlood, I was scared to take my Vitamins because I have to chew them up. What if I don't chew them up good enough? But I'll take one now. Let's see how this turns out.

Just chew them up as good as you can. My surgeon says it is okay to chew Vitamins even from day one as long as you chew them really good. Not having Vitamins may also be contributing why you feel weak.

FYI, I also have to chew my vitamins and I haven't noticed a problem with it.

I took one this afternoon and chewed it up really good. No problems at all!

How is everyone managing to get in their fluids? I thought about making a scheudule, but my alarm would be going off every 2 to 3 minutes!

I just keep liquids near me and just sip all day. I'm not at the point where I distinguish a breakfast/lunch/dinner yet. I always have like, 3 cups around me. I think it annoys my family. ;P Having an alarm would drive you insane if it was going off that much. You'd be dreaming of beeping.

LOL yea you're right and I would not get any sleep!! I'll keep focusing on sipping and worry about quantity later.

This too shall pass my friend. Im 2 weeks out. I know its painfull and frustrating. Please try sugar free popcicles and slowly. This helped me when I couldnt drink. Tiny tiny sips and walk or move alot! Everything is very swollen and lots of gas. Dont panic. This is normal. Hang in there.

Why not get liquid multi-vitamins. I got mine from GNC.

Because I bought a big old bottle of chewables and I don't like wasting money. They actually dissolve pretty well so I'm ok with them. Just a little scared at first.
