I plan to ask my surgeon about this as well but I'd like to pick you post-op's brains as well. I am hearing that so many of you are not able to tolerate your vitamins and often end up throwing them up. I wondered if it would be ok to postpone the vitamins until the sleeve is much more healed, say around week 5 or 6? Most of our protein drinks already contain some amount of vitamins without having to stomach a pill or chewable while the sleeve is so raw. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
