What tests need to be done after gastric sleeve surgery?



Recommended Posts

I'm 3 weeks post-op and unsure what tests to ask my PCP to complete.

Please help - Thanks!!!

The only tests I have done are bi yearly Vitamin levels. I also see my pcp, as I moved out of the state of my surgeon and don't think it's necessary to get a new bariatric surgeon when all I need is blood work twice a year.

Good luck!

My doc gives me a script to get the blood drawn a week before the appointment, so I'll have the results to go over with him.

I just saw my PCP this morning, and later in the month, when I'm three months post-op we're running CBC, Complete Metabolic Profile, and a whole bunch of vitamins: B12, D, Iron, K, A, C and others.
