Multivitamins



Recommended Posts

They are all disgusting. I was cleared to take capsules and haven't had any issues with them.

I use the Bariatric Advantage multi chewy bites...they're sort of like a starburst texture, and they're the only ones that don't make me puke. One caveat with these is that they do not contain Iron, Calcium or magnesium, but they make calcium chews in the same chewy texture so I take both. For iron, I use BariMelts Iron + Vitamin C which dissolve in your mouth...they don't taste fantastic but they are easy on my stomach. I've always had problems being able to take iron supplements and these are the only ones that don't give me trouble.

If you get them, I recommend the strawberry Watermelon multi and the lemon calcium...the coconut calcium chews arent nearly as good.

I’m a military veteran and the VA just sent me the Bariatric Pal MultiVit ONE like in the photo. Amen! I hate the other chewables! I’m 5 weeks post gastric bypass. Good luck!

How did you get the VA to send you Multivitamins?
Did they just automatically do it or did you have to ask your doctor?
I also got my surgery through the VA but I am having trouble even getting reimbursed for the meds I had to get for the surgery

I take Barimelts Multivitamin plus Iron. They aren't horrible, kind of like chewing a tums with a berry flavor.

      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!!
