Everyday Questions

I am almost 6 months post op and I have a few questions that I don't feel like bothering my doctor's office with. Can any one help? Sometimes I get ravenous after I work out. Is that normal? Is Acidophilus safe for post op patients? I am currently taking a multi, iron, Acidophilus, B-12 & calcium everyday, most of which need to be taken 2x a day, with meals. I only eat 3 meals a day. Which of these will interact with the others and which can I take together. Is there a general list somewhere of what we can take and what we can't? Thanks!

Hi Christine!!!! When I work out I get hungry also so this maybe normal. I know people who did have the surgery feel reallllllllllly hunry so I wouldn't be bother by it! As for the Acidophilus I just started taking it and so far it hasn't done anything (at leats I think it hasn't) I do not take my calcium and b12, I take them at differeent time because some where down the line I heard they weren't go together. I rather be safe then sorry. Also caffein with the calcium is a NO NO. The caffein won't let our body absord the calcium. As for a list you can go on the main board and ask them, they are great at getting right back to you!!! Hope this helped you out!!!! Have a great night!!! Carmen

Hi Christine, You can ask the Pharmasist at and drug store and they will be able to help you out with any of your medication questions. I go to my local CVS and they are always very helpful. Take Care, Julio
