Going To My First Appointment.



Recommended Posts

Just had my surgery on 8/28/12 and today is my first doctor appointment. I don't know what to expect. I'm pretty sure they are going to weight me.. I'm not sure what to say or what to ask for?

Any suggestions?

i would tell them how you are feeling (honestly)

ask any questions that you have concerns about (eating/bathroom habits/shoulder pain etc) that is what they are there for.

just relax. you are doing just fine. let us know how it goes when you get back :)

You'll find, hopefully, they will ask you lots of questions about how you are going, how much you're eating, what sorts of foods etc. they will weigh you and ask if you have any questions. Ask anything you're not sure off. Each time I go for a fill my doctor spends the first 20 mins or so talking to be, reinforcing the rules etc. I ask a lot of questions and I write them down so I don't forget.
