My dr told me to start taking my regular Vitamins (no more chewables). However every time I take the Multivitamin, I almost instantly start feeling nauseated. I get the hot face, the watering mouth, tight throat. Within 5 minutes I'm having terrible diarrhea. Has anyone else experienced this? Any ideas as to why I'm feeling this way?

*ive emailed my surgeon, I'm waiting to here back from him.*

I've often wondered if it's the vitamins giving me diarrhea too as I also have had it since I started taking them pre op...

I'm still pre-op and my multi Vitamin makes me sick! If I take it on an empty stomach I feel AWFUL about 15 minutes later. I've started taking it at night after I've eaten and it works out better for me. My chewables give me no problems at all

The chewables taste awful and are the size of four quarters stacked. But they didn't upset my stomach. I guess I'm gonna be switching back to them until I hear from my surgeon.

Another thing to consider each multivitamin has a different make up. Sometimes the different make up will not give you the nauseated feeling. Maybe you could try a different brand...you know the costco brand versus the Vitamin store brand versus blah blah blah blah

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
