well any multi will work for before your surgery as for afterwards i wouldnt stock up on anything because your taste will change so much after the surgery you may end up with a bunch of stuff you dont like...ie.carnation instant breakfast now taste like dirty feet..lol...just some fyi...when is your surgery or d you not have a date yet??

Something I wish I knew.....if you get a lot of protein in before surgery you will rebound/heal faster.  Start drinking shakes now, but don't stock up too much because your tastes change drastically for awhile after surgery.....After almost 2 years I still have things I used to love that I can't tolerate now.
