How come everytime I start taking a daily multiple vitamin I always get a cold sore?

It doesn't matter what brand of vitamin I take, or what time of day I take them! They always cause me to get a cold sore. Now that I have been diagnosed with acid reflex, my doctor suggested that I take a multivitamin because the medicine he prescribed for reflux actually blocks the absorption of B vitamins. I usually get a cold sore within 2 to 3 days of taking a multivitamin.

1. the medication must not go well with your vitamin or maybe it is to strong you might try afew boost or ensure daily with has lots of vitamins in it and cereals do also
2. I would strongly encourage you to have your doctor test you for Celiac Disease. Your doctor apparently is not knowledgeable in this very common condition that can be causing all of your symptoms (including the reflux and cold sores), so you should demand a referral to a specialist in Celiac Disease for a proper evaluation. Best wishes and good luck.
