Ilovecats1985 100 Posted November 20, 2015 My dr told me to start taking my regular Vitamins (no more chewables). However every time I take the Multivitamin, I almost instantly start feeling nauseated. I get the hot face, the watering mouth, tight throat. Within 5 minutes I'm having terrible diarrhea. Has anyone else experienced this? Any ideas as to why I'm feeling this way? *ive emailed my surgeon, I'm waiting to here back from him.* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tmcx28 297 Posted November 21, 2015 I'm still pre-op and my multi Vitamin makes me sick! If I take it on an empty stomach I feel AWFUL about 15 minutes later. I've started taking it at night after I've eaten and it works out better for me. My chewables give me no problems at all Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But they didn't upset my stomach. I guess I'm gonna be switching back to them until I hear from my surgeon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jhclikesshopping@gmail.com 285 Posted November 22, 2015 Another thing to consider each multivitamin has a different make up. Sometimes the different make up will not give you the nauseated feeling. Maybe you could try a different brand...you know the costco brand versus the Vitamin store brand versus blah blah blah blah Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
