Pre & Post-Surgery Vitamins UK

Hello all! :)

I have been loving the support and the community from this forum since I joined, so thank you!

Quick question for anyone in the UK, but where do you get your supplements from? I have seen a US site (Baricol), but I was wondering if there is anything specific to the UK!

Also - a general question - did people start taking vitamins before their surgery?

I am about 4 months off and this is what I am taking/doing so far: (probably a bit overboard)

Again, I may be going a bit overboard but I just want to give my body the best chance of success!

I think my package will come with 2 years support too! Just out of curiosity (if you don't mind sharing), who did you go with?

I'll have to ask my GP if I can sort those things out then - I am pretty sure I have a B12 deficiency anyway! Thank you for sharing your advice :)
