What Bloodwork is Needed at 3-mo Checkup?



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved in Mexico, so I don't have a bariatric doctor stateside. I'm going to my first local doctor appt this month so I can get bloodwork done. My doc was never very supportive, so I'm looking forward to surprising him with 45 lbs down in 3 months! (Then I think I'll switch doctors, just CUZ.)

I know I need to check B-12 level, but can someone advise me what what exactly I need to request be checked, bloodwork or otherwise? Thanx!

My doctor checked Protein levels, Vitamin D, b vitamins...can't remember everything else. There was a lot of stuff checked on my sheet. :)

My dr also checks Iron, zinc, Vitamin A, potassium, chloride,calcium, and sodium, and a few more but can't think of all of them.

When did you get your levels checked? I am 12 weeks out and just wondering when this should be checked.

I get certain blood work checked every month but my dr makes sure all Vitamins are checked every 3 months.
