    Your physicians will usually prescribe the type of vitamin supplement they think you need. Their lab work should indicate any deficiencies in minerals that require supplements.

    Nessa, you may just have a thing about pills in general (some days, I can hardly stand to slop mine down). The kidneys and liver deal with most of the various chemicals you digest; unless these organs are really stressed, and unless you have allergic reactions, it is probably not the specific vitamins that are causing you grief. Still, this is worth mentioning to your doc when you get a chance.

    There are a host of vitamins and supplements that you should NOT take with wegs treatment or when you have wegs. I am sure Sangye will let you know soon all the types that are "verbotten" (forbidden) I take calcium, for the bones, vit B6 and B12, and folate to counteract side effects from methotrexate.
