After weight loss surgery, the healthcare team will do a routine blood test to make sure that your nutrition is optimized and in particular that there is no deficiency in your vitamins or your minerals. This should not really happen if you are complying and taking the multivitamins as advised. If, however, there is a deficiency, then this can be picked up on a blood test and can be individually replaced if needed.
