Multivitamin help



Recommended Posts

I decided to buy the Bariatric Fusion Multivitamins in the orange cream flavor, but I can’t seem to stand the taste of those any longer. Anyone have suggestions for one that taste good or if there are some that are easy to swallow? I used the fusion ones so I only had to worry about the B12, so any help would be appreciated.

I bought sample packs of Bariatric fusion and Bari-Melts, and I much preferred the Bari-Melts. I recommend getting the sample pack first to make sure you like them.

I take sublingual (cherry flavor) B-12 from costco, the calcium chews from Celebrate, and a Flintstones complete. Along with a probiotic, and my Prozac (but those are capsules, which seem to be going down fine). My surgeon told me I only need the Flintstones Complete - but I'm worried about Calcium, just as a 44 year old woman - and don't want to end up with bone/teeth issues. The B-12 was just recommended by a friend who also had VSG - he said it can't hurt - you just pee out what you don't need. It's cheap enough from Costco, that I figured I'd try it. Haven't had any bloodwork yet - I'm due an annual with my internist - so no clue if this is working out ok. I'm also only 2 months post-op.

      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!!
