Baconville 578 Posted September 20, 2013 How many if you have had lab work done? My surgeon doesn't do it until sometime after 6 months. Don't recall when' date=' but thinking it might be a year. Seems too long to wait. Want to make sure my Vitamin levels are good. My GP denied my request for labs.[/quote'] My clinic does it at six months. If you are feeling good, your levels are probably just fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baconville 578 Posted September 20, 2013 signing up for my first 5k! who'd have thought? You know, I have actually been thinking about doing that. I think next spring would be the soonest, but it has never even been something I thought I would want to try before! Kudos to you for going for it!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had bloodwork my 1st appointment for the 1 week follow up... was told my Iron was low and vit D... and my gp had blood work done to check my thyroid and something else... and I go back on Oct. 3rd for my 3 month visit and they will recheck my blood work at the surgeons office and then at the end of October my GP has me down for more bloodwork to do my 6 month follow up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rhyzell 70 Posted September 21, 2013 Excellent....ooooh thats a lie :-). had a breakfast disaster yesterday. me and my adventerous side decided against the better judgement of my sane side to try a turkey sausage' date=' egg white on a tiny whole wheat bagel.for breakfast. had two very very well chewed bites and it got STUCK like a car on the Schykill expressway (philly ref) it was so bad i had to get off the trolley to get "relief " ....took two hours to get my shit back together again. i really hate these eating lessons ....... oh well back to scrambled eggs. Damn you Bagels !!!! lol[/quote'] I miss bagels with cream cheese!

waddapane 19 Posted September 21, 2013 Maybe the "skinny" Bagels will work. My NUT put them on the list of foods to try in my next phase, starting the 25th. 2 irishkat and Rhyzell reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
