I'm 3 weeks post-op, not including 1 week pre-op liquids, and asked my Dentist about the chapped areas in the corners of my mouth. Ive been putting neosporin on it twice a day, and they won't go away (over a week). not cold sores, my dentist said it looks like a vitamin B deficiancy. Has anyone had isssues with this? I've been taking chewable flinstones vitamins since surgery.

I work in a Dental office ...fyi never ok to put neosporin on your lips. Carmex is good for re hydrating them . Alot of pts at the end of summer get dry peely lips or in the winter.

Jacqui im so sorry to hear that diagnosis. You will be in my prayers!!

I agree with Jacqui; we need adult Vitamins, preferably bariatric ones designed for bandsters.

(Jacqui, I hope you're feeling as well as can be expected; you are often in my thoughts and prayers.)

Have you looked at a whole foods store for some liquid vitamins. I saw them just the other day but didn't get any because the bottle was about a quart size and the price was like $40.00 I thought that was a lot of money to spend not knowing if I'd like them or not.
