Questions for my doctor

[Husky2Healthy 1]

I am seeing my Doctor today for my 6 weeks post op. I am down 44 lbs, on solids and doing well. Although, I always like to come in with a list of questions to ask when i see any doctor. Here is m list, can you thinkof anything else to ask? What did you ask?

1) I am not on any heartburn, PPI (?) medicine, why not?

2) I 'feel' like I get really hungry after the 1st hour I eat, is this really hunger or is it gas or just acid? What can help if it is not hunger, Tums, a PPI (?)?

3) I want him to look at my food journal, it appears I am taking in eual parts protien, fats (I eat a lot of avocados), and carbs. I am eating complex crbs in foods, not simple, white empty carbs. Should I be concerned about this? What should my ratio be?

Any other thoughts to add? Any questions will be greatly appreciated!

You have a great list! I am curious if your doc /place of surgery has a nutritonist availabe too. "Sometimes" a doctor is so vague, but a nutrionist really gets in depth, espeically your questions about carbs, complex carbs, etc.. There has been chatter back & forth regarding the carb aspect, some of us count and watch carbs and some of us do not. Some docs mention it and some dont...

Wishing you well
