Due to insurance requirements, I had a 90 day waiting period before surgery. I have 30 days to go. Right now I am trying to find a good source for Vitamins. Where are you getting your vitamins from? I am reading a lot to learn as much as I can before surgery. Good luck to you and keep me posted on how you do.

Hi Blondie well when it was about Vitamins I was looking more for afforable prices than brands I start searching online and I found at walgreens multi chewable vitamins for $2.39 them the Iron at Wal-Mart I think it was less than $4.00 and the Vitamin D was less than $5.00 at Wal-Mart as well the B 12 I got it at the dollasr general for $5.00 I have to take 2pill to make the 5000 that is req. But since is weekely I don't mind the Calcium my mom got it at costco so I share hers..

Since I got the surgery what I do I smash the pill put them in Water and drink them I mean I don't mind doing that.. but how ever you feel comfortable with

      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.
