I found Reviva brand liquid high potency multi-Vitamins at costco - I add 2 tablespoons to my Premier Protein drink in the morning and it seems to be helping my tummy upsets tremendously. I feel like I am a professional Protein and supplement tester after a year of this stuff before surgery lol. They do have carbs - I think it is in the 3-5 range.

Those Bariatric Advantage french vanilla Vitamins are beyond unpalatable - and I grew so sick of the berry flavor I had to find an alternative. Thy need to invent a Vitamin patch :)

My NUT recommended I take the Flintstone complete chewables--two a day--in addition to my Calcium. I inquired about gummies and she said that the gummies did not provide adequate Iron. Again, this is according to my NUT, I am not an expert in any way shape or form on these.

Yep! My nut told me 2 Flinstones complete (purple bottle) a day. I can get them at sams for a great price. You can get them at Walmart, Target, Grocery store...just about every where.

I also take 1 B100, a day 3 calcuim chews, and a B12 once a week. Levels have been perfect each time.

By the way, to be completely honest, My flinstone is the worst part about my sleeve and I can live with that!!!

What ever you settle with I am sure you will find one that your tum likes and then you will be fine. Good Luck to you.

      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?
