Whoo boy....do I need help with the vitamins!

There are chewable calcium tablets. Also, over the counter antacids like TUMS have calcium and my surgeon said they are okay to take. I use a chewable from Coutnry LIfe called Cal-Snack. They are a bit chalky but they just crumble up in your mouth. Not too unpleasant tasting.The ones I take have a vanilla/orange flavor. BTW, Country Life also makes a chewable vitamine. The only thing is they don't chew up as easily as the calcium. You have to "suck" them for a while rather than chew because they are a bit hard. But still better than a pill. Hope you can get these in the Europe. Hope this helps!

Have you tried Viactive? It's 500 mg of Calcuim plus vitamin D. Best part is they are softchews that are delicious. Chocolate is my favorite. They also have caramel.
