Topic: Had my surgery on the 16th and need vitamin info
I had my Fobi on March 16th and am home recovering. I am having a problem getting all of my vitamins and suppliments down in one day. Can anyone recommend a good chewable or sublingual Multi Vitamin and calcium?

In each forum, along the left you'll find "About ____ (insert type of surgery here". That's where you can read up about each type.
Fobi is an RNY with the stoma reinforced with a silastic ring.

Topic: RE: Need Info about Fobi....Surgery next week
Hi Tamara,
My sister in California had the Fobi pouch and is doing fine. She's not skinny my any means though. If I were you though, I would find a forum about the Fobi. You do need to get allot of information quick, fast and in a hurry if you are getting the procedue on the 23rd. I did not know that they were performing this procedure in Ohio though.
