Wellesse Liquid Calcium Citrate & Vitamin D



This is an item that came in my $950 kit from Dr. Felix's office the day before my surgery.  This was a lifesaver after surgery and after trying to deal with so many pills and chewable vitamins.  I most definitely recommend this for those of you who are less than six weeks post op.

As you know, i had a few complications, nothing TOO major, and i'm still alive and i wouldn't change a thing I am happy with my decision.  Life is MUCH BETTER!  YAY!  Anyways, with my complications getting even liquid down, you can imagine my struggle to choke down pills both for acid prevention and for my still existing gallbladder.  Then the chewable vitamins and iron pill as well.  This was a breath of fresh air. 

WORD OF ADVICE:  Please always remember, NEVER take this with your iron pill.  It will not absorb.  Nor will your iron.  That's what i was told from my surgeon's office.  They know best!  You may take this with your regular multivitamin though.  Remember to only take 1 tbsp. at a time.  Although it says you take 2, your body can only absorb 500mg at a time so just take 1 tbps. at a time and then wait at least 1 hour before taking another.  :)

A big thumbs up to the Wellesse Liquid Calcium Citrate (never use carbonate, it doesn't absorb in our pouches!) & Vitamin D.
