Do any of you take multivitamins? I feel under the weather a lot and know I cannot possibly get enough nutrients(as I have dropped a lot of foods to make a "safe list") I have heard that multivitamins can be tough on the stomach. Has anyone else found this? I heard taking them with food will help. Any insight is appreciated. Thanks.

I take one everday at the end of my meal, and I do fine with it. Right now, I'm taking one for women with extra iron in it. Only because I'm trying to bump up my iron so I can donate blood.

Mags,
That's awesome! What made you decide to give blood? Good for you! You may have just inspired me...

Actually, I wanted to donate blood, just to help people. So, I asked my boss if he'd let me run a blood drive at my work. He had no problem with it, so I contacted Red Cross and went from there. So not only would I get to donate myself, I got a bunch of people to donate! Unfortunately, I was denied for low iron count (I'm not anemic, but you have to have your count even higher to donate). 
But, it wasn't too bad. I ended up getting 29 pints of blood, one short of our goal of 30. And each pint saves 3 lives! 
I have a second chance in March, when I scheduled our next drive, so wish me luck!

WOW, Mags, you're my hero!  That's AWESOME! If I had been there I would've gotten you to 30...if I qualified that is 
I remember in college a frat or something was doing a blood drive...and I didn't qualify...but I hope to someday! I'll keep you in mind...hope you get to next time...if you do, let me know! I live vicariously through ya
