Right out of surgery...what vitamins?

[Fox-E 27]

Anyone pretty new out of surgery? I have mine in just over a week, and I'm not sure what Vitamins to buy. I've been trying all sorts of samples.< /p>

I think I'm leaning toward Bariatric fusion.

Bariatric fusion is a good choice.

My bariatric doctor put me on Bariatric Advantage AE. It is a huge horse pill about as big around as a penny and as thick as a pencil. Not only could I not swallow it whole, I could not swallow it cut into four pieces. So.......I mash it up like a fine powder, and then put it in a blueberry applesauce snack cup. No problem, but I do count the applesauce calories in my plan.

Centrum has a adult chewable only one a day! My Dr. is fine with these. Good luck on your journey.

My list post-op was a daily multi-Vitamin (I like Centrum flavor bursts), a weekly (prescribed) Vitamin D, and 2 sublingual B-12s per day. Oh and I added Fiber gummies. Later, Calcium citrate was added to my daily list, but I'm still trying to find a version that doesn't have a side effect for me. Yuck.

What does your doc recommend?

Dont worry about it until your Doc tells you too. Early on it time to heal and get your Water in. The rest will come out a month out.

I would say to take what your doctor recommends. No one on her will be able to answer that for you. I've seen Vitamins on these boards ranging from two flintstones chewables a day to four bariatric vitamins a day. Personally, my doctor has me on three bariatric vitamins per day for life. But every doctor has different recommendations and no one can speak for your doctor.
