Can anyone tell me what kind of labs need to be done at 6 months? I've not made it back to my surgeon for my 6 month check up yet (he's up in Atlanta, 2 hours one way) but I do have a check up tomorrow with my PCP and I would love to be able to tell him what levels need to be checked. I truly appreciate any info! Barb Happy Holidays!

Barb, My list is the same as Kathy's. I hope you have insurance as that list costs about $700 to get done. I had to appeal to get my insurance to pay for it, but, they did agree. My physician wants to do this blood work every 3 months. Lori 384/268.5/170 P.S. My 6 month blood work looked stellar, I'm proud to say!
