Who supplies you vitamins and calcium?

Thanks KP  My vitamins are chelated.  Thanks also for explaining the reason behind chelation. 
I also did check my paperwork from MMPC and it says "one regular multivamin".  I have an appointment next week and will discuss with them further.  Had lab work so might have some problems.  Since I have had two resections to small intestines and one resection of colon then chelated vitamin might be important to me. 
Thanks again KP for the advise. 

Dana -

Double check your dosage recommendations.  If your doc is only recommending you take 1 multi per day, definitely question him on that.  The ASMBS recommends RNY and DS patients take double the normal dose -- so 2 per day. 

Here's an article with more details:

hi KP...i get my vitamins at the drug store or health food store...also i just found this on another board about the calcium creamy bites....bariatric advantage purchased the rights to the creamy bites and will sell them shortly...not sure if they will be sold in stores or through the web site and drs office. hope this helps those that want the creamy bites...

Thanks Pam.  I have an appointment Thursday of next week so will definitely talk with them about it.  I had the VSG if that makes any difference.  I will also be getting my first blood work results since surgery.  Probably wouldn't hurt me to go ahead and start taking two tablets each day anyway.  Thanks again

Sorry I didn't realize that it made a difference.  Thanks for the lesson.  Guess I am not too old to learn something new.
