popsicle_20721 27 Posted February 10, 2013 Never heard this, my doc and NUT stressed the importance of taking my Vitamins. At first I had to take chewables, but now I do better with pill form. Nevertheless, always listen to you doc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DayByDay 123 Posted February 10, 2013 if they are how come they give us the chewable Vitamins at the hospital it doesnt make sense to me at all Interesting. I guess each doctor does things differently. My Nut did tell me they used to start Vitamins sooner but they just changed it up just recently. If you doctor says its okay then I would follow their instructions. I am going to ask if I can take liquid B vitamins after the clear liquid stage. B's help with energy and it is liquid soluble.

Geminidrive 389 Posted February 10, 2013 My doctor and nut have me wait about 10 days because taking Vitamins is hard on the tummy after surgery. My surgeon said the same thing, he added it was going to be hard enough to focus on the liquids and Protein shakes one more thing would just be more difficult.

jeanettecamacho07 9 Posted February 10, 2013 My doc. Told me Vitamins is my food and he was right. If I didnt take my pills or waited too long in the day I felt the same way. I had no energy, no apitite, nothing. I just wanted to sleep but when I take them I feel energized. Its hard to believe you cant take your vitamins. The hospital didnt give me any but I was ok because my doc started me on the vitamins 1 month pre op so by that time its still in my system. I hope the 10 days come and go for you and your back to your regular self, I would take them anyways but its up to you. Thousands of us have different docs with different views and mines never said to stop taking them ever. Good luck and god bless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Richard Foor 655 Posted February 10, 2013 I know my Dr. wanted me to wait until I started mushy food to start taking Vitamins. He said it would be to hard to try to take even a chewable during the liquid phases because of the stomach swelling and healing. I am actually surprised that some people got them in the hospital but as with everything every dr. is different. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
