Every doctor and nutritionist are different. I have always taken gummies for vitamins because I have an allergy that prevents me from taking regular vitamins. I've felt fabulous since my surgery but, as I said, I'm ony 2 month out. Of course, always refer to your health care provider and nutritionist for clues as to what you should take post op.
