Vitamin Patches



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone. Me again with another question. I can no longer take any Vitamins chewables gummies etc. I think my next step is vitamin patches. Can anyone recommend the best ones and confirm how they are working for them? I'm just so sick of being sick and throwing up every time I try to get them down.

Ps I have tried them grounded up and in Protein Shakes. Also in drinks. God only know how fast I ended up having to run upstairs to projecting vomit all over my bathroom.

Help SOS!!

Thanks.

Can we just do the Patches for pre and post op instead of all the Vitamins?

I would as your doctor. My doctor told me to get chewables but I can't stomach them anymore after my surgery

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
