Thank you everyone! I am using the Bariatric Advantage Multivitamins. But everything for me tastes bad, even coffee. I put in a call to the doc today to see what are my options. In the meantime, I'm going to get some altoids!!!

After I wrote this post I googled it and yes I agree. I appreciate your response. It's comforting to know I am not loosing my mind!!! I can't eat, drink, let alone eat those horrible chewable Multivitamins. I'm so done with the Vitamins I'm going to start the regular pills next week. It's the only way I'm guaranteed to take them.

Hello, I had surgery this year November 18th. Almost a month, but I have this taste in my mouth that makes me want to gag all the time. My surgery was a little tricky and there were complications. I ended up staying in the hospital for a week and my surgery lasted 6.5 hours. Because of this I am on a very strict diet and just last week they allowed me to go to pureed foods. Is it the food, the shakes, or the actual DS surgery, what is going on with my mouth!!! I want to brush every minute. However, another side affect is that nothing tastes right. I have to literally force my self to eat anything. Has this happened to anyone? Just wondering! Sandra
