no I did the wellesse - also because I was not able to find a great chewable with calcium nitrate.

I took pills.  I was told that any pill smaller than a chocolate M&M could be taken, so I cut my calciums and took them.  I switched to chewable calcium after my ulcer, and they go down really easily, I can totally see that they would be OK now.  Take it and see if it works.  One was too sugary for me.

Thanks for your responses!

I just had my surgery this past Friday, so was leary to try them, but  did and haven't had any issue with it.

I haven't had any problems with anything so far...I've been lucky!

Yes, but they need to be Calcium Citrate chews.  Amazon.ca carries the Bariatric Advantage series.  I think one of the hospitals in Toronto (their pharmacy) carries calcium citrate chews as well.
