Confused over Post-op Vitamin regimen

[ironpoorer 88]

I had my sleeve 12/28 and have had no complications, in fact I feel almost 100%. Prior to the sleeve I had a 1 hour teleconference with my Doctor's dietitian where we reviewed all the Vitamins etc I would need to take, plus she sent me a 50 page attachment which also describes the same. On my release from the hospital, they also reviewed what I will need to take. Now comparing notes there are inconsistencies between the 3. I know I have to take a Multivitamin, Calcium (citrate), Vit D and B12.< /p>

Hospital said 3000 mg B12 sub-lengual, the book says 500, neither says what kind of Vit D (as I recall there were several), but do not know quantity of units, ditto for Calcium, not sure how much.

Can anyone help me to set up a daily regimen of exactly what to take and how much?

my hospital gave me all the meds I needed for the first month so let me tell you what I got. note there generic pharmacy versions Centrum chew tabs for multivitamin, calcium 500 + d chewable tablets, Vitamin b12 1,000 mcg tab 1x per week hope it helps you note you cannot take the calcium and multivitamin at same time mult has Iron in it and they will cancel each other out I was told so you must do calcium 3x and wait 2 hours then eat a multivitamin 2 hour window allows calcium to dissolve so the receptors will absorb the Iron

A one a day bariatric Vitamin makes your post op Vitamin regimen so much easier.

I do a Multivitamin, a Calcium, and sub lingual B12. I also have to now do an Iron. My 6 month mal-absorption testing showed that I was low on Iron (I always have been though). Some people require more or less depending on their sitution.
