What supplements are everyone taking?



Recommended Posts

I'm taking a "one daily" women's health vitamin/mineral supplement, 5000 mcg B-12, 5000 IU Vitamin D, 2 Calcium chews, and 500 mg Vitamin C. I used to take Iron supplements and Biotin as well, but I ran out of them and haven't bought more. Both are in the multivitamin- the Iron is 100% daily recommended. I am 4 months out.

I am taking 500 mcg of B12 once a day and a flinstone chewable once a day

I'm pre-surgery but started taking supplements so that I'd be in the habit of taking them after the surgery.

1 Centrum Silver chewable multivitamin twice a day

1 calcium citrate 500mg chewable three times a day

1 500mcg B-12 sublingual dot once a day

      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?
