Vitamins after surgery

I was wondering what all vitamins does Dr. Gibbs require you to take after your surgery? I know with my husbands surgery he has to take 2 multivitamins, 2 calciums, and a B-12. Is this the same for Dr. Gibbs? If it is different from his I need to buy some before I go in NEXT FRIDAY. God Bless Cynthia

To piggy back on this question - are these prescription or over-the-counter? I remember reading somewhere that Flintstone chewables are a good option but I can't remember where.

i take flinstones with iron x 2 (this is ferrous fumerate iron too!!!!) calcium citrate x 2 ferrous fumerate x 3 magnesium x 3 potassium x 1 vit c x 2 b12 x 4 I am 6 yrs post op and doing ok. I just pee greenish yellow....tmi I know. who knows if I should take all of this...but I dont have any issues except for not eating enough and some weight gain. I was anemi****il I upped the iron. I dont go to the dr as none of the surgeons in Memphis will see me since they did not perform my RNY. Sucks to be me I guess..... blah this day sucks.....me and my achey new boobs are going home in 20 mins to take a hot bath and drink a beer...um yeah those were the days. I am a cheap date half a mcdonalds happy meal and 3/4 of a corona and I am trashed and someone is gettin naked.....hehehehe not really naked I just like to throw that in for sh*ts and giggles. huggs, tantalizing tammy and her big ole titties

Jo Beth, the dietician for Dr. Gibbs, will give you a book on everything you need post-op and in it will be a list of recommended vitamins. She'll also go over it with you when you meet with her, if you're having your surgery at Baptist. I take a Flintstone chewable twice a day, a calcium supplement twice a day (Citrical w/ vitamin D petites) and a B-12 shot once a month. The only thing he absolutely requires is the multi-vitamin and calcium, the rest depends on your labs. You'll start your multi-vitamin a week after surgery and your calcium 4 weeks after surgery. Hope this helps, if I've left out anything hopefully someone else will fill it in! Take care, Denise

Thanks for all the help. If the multivitamin, calcium and B-12 is all he requires I am set, because my husband already has to take those. Thanks GOD BLess. Cynthia
