I agree -- crushed pills were SO disgusting. That and puree to me have been the worst part of this whole thing. Well there was a little pain the first week, but not that bad. When I was cleared to swallow pills, I thought about crushing my crusher!!! I didn't just in case!

I was 6 weeks out and got the clearance to swallow my pills as well as vitamins. WOW....the calcium and multi were huge, but so far so good. Also taking D3 and Fish oil, but those really just slide down. My regular pills are pretty small. I take them all one at a time but not long between each one....just separate swallows of water. Luckily I have no problem with water. After I took the first calcium giant, all I could picture was it being too big for my sleeve, but they are thankfully coated so I guess they slide through ok....I hope!! LOL :biggrin5:

They gave me popsicles WITH sugar IN the hospital so it is really okay!! My surgery was December 22, so I am right there with you. BTW, had you had Bypass, you would be sick...yuck!!!
