My vitamins made me throw up :(



Recommended Posts

Hi, I’m taking the bariatric Multivitamin with Iron (I’ll try to attach a pic). The first time I broke it open and dumped a little bit in my mouth with some Water bc I wasn’t sure my stomach could handle the big pill or break down the capsule. I instantly vomited (first time since my surgery 4 weeks ago). Then today I took the whole pill hoping it would just break down. It didn’t hurt or get stuck, felt fine digestive wise, but within five minutes my mouth started watering and I vomited again. Ughhhh is there a chewable that has the same thing thisnone has? I don’t wanna take more than one pill a day so that’s why I bought this one. Thanks for any advice, I really appreciate it!

I started throwing up my Vitamins also. I used the chewable Bariatric Advantage. The doctor said to just take a break for a bit from them or try taking them before bed.

I am pre-op and trying to prep for the big DAY. I purchased this Vitamin online with Amazon. It says 1 once Daily. What other Vitamins would or do you take along with this one?

I had trouble with Vitamins post op - in the first few weeks. Made me puke, too. I switched to a chewable with an Iron supplement (my team didn't care what chewable - any regular adult or double the dose of Flinstones kids) and an iron supplement because chewables can't have iron in them. (Some kind of chemistry thing I don't understand.) I use the Vitafusion Women's which I buy at costco. My levels have been good for the last 2 years.

Can you cancel the order and I’ll send you this? It’s a full bottle and I’ll never use it.

I bought Celebrate chewables and have to take my multi in pieces because it makes me vomit. I can tolerate it in small pieces broken up. Take celebrate B12 sublingual quick melt and Bariatric Advantage chewy bite calcium citrate with d3. Those I tolerate twice a day no problem.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
