Just a quick question, when do you start taking your Bariatric vitamins? In the hospital or at home as soon as you can?

If you change nothing, nothing changes

Hey Kendyl!

For me, I started months before surgery. That way, my levels were normal and ready for surgery.

Good luck.

Cheers,

Skotti

They gave them to me in the hospital then gave me instructions and a sort of prescription to fill at the hospital pharmacy (HRRH)

I now use patchMD vitamins as I couldn't take the chewable sand liquid - they made me sick. My numbers at my three month follow up were perfect. I also do a B12 shot monthly.
