Patches



Recommended Posts

Hi All

Does any one uses the Patches on here? Do the work? I am from Australia and a number of them look really good for me rather than taking a ton of tablets.....I already take 20in the morning lol

My surgery center said no Patches or gummies, but I know many people here use them and have good results. One thing is if you have sensitive skin, it's possible to get a rash from the adhesive. Maybe someone else here has had good results and will respond. I'm just responding mostly to "upvote" your post!

I have sensitive skin and get a rash from them but I do use a Vitamin D one on top of tablets to combat my chronic Vitamin d deficiency. So far with it my levels have been good.

Hopefully someone has more input for you.

I use the Patches because I get really nauseous from Vitamins. Did before surgery, now it is worse, so my dr said to do the patches. Have recently had blood work and all my levels are good/improved except my Iron is a bit low. I would check with your dr. Here is a picture of what I use. I order directly from their website.

the Patches work for some but not for others. I've never tried them because I'm sure I'd be one of those people they don't work for. But they might be worth a shot if you're tired of taking all the pills - they may end up working for you.

      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! 😞
