There was an old post or thread a while back about Vitamins and someone posted a brand that sounded like an all-in-one specified for RNY needs. Anyone know what it is and where I can get them?!! My Vitamin regime is falling apart with a busy schedule!

My RNY team suggests optisource - 2 in the am and 2 in the pm...

NUT said it’s the perfect total source for all my needs - nothing else to take or schedule - except PROTEIN...

My Dr. and NUT approved me taking opurity once per day. I got it from the Unjury site.

I'm with Nicole K! I switched over from O'purity to the Bariatric chewable from ProCare now. I love that I only have to take one Multivitamin, plus Calcium and B12. It's small and easily chewable!

I take Bariatric Fusion (buy them online- Get some free samples by emailing them!). Yes, I take 4 chewables per day (or at least 3, sometimes I forget 1), but I don't have to take ANY other supplements. I really like that! (It even has Biotin in it!)

I was told by the nutritionist not to take the all-in-one stuff. You have to take the Calcium and Iron separately and at least 2 hours apart. Calcium blocks the absorption of iron. They're probably fine as long as you're taking iron supplements.< /p>

I do take calcium and b-12 and iron separately. I can't take the other bariatric Vitamins or should say can't remember 4 times a day. So a one a day works and my nutritionist approved it. Good luck!

I also take a separate Ca and D3 supplement along with extra B12. (in addition to the 1/day Opurity). Dr. and NUT like this version.

      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?
