I am having my first primary care appointment post-op. Two weeks two late I think. I am going to a new Dr and I will have my info faxed from the other doctor to my new Dr. I wanted to know though what I should I ask for in this appointment. What should the doctor be checking for? Anything specific?

You definately need to tell your doc about all the trouble you are having with throwing up and nausea that is keeping you from eating and drinking. With all the vomitting you could easily dehydrate, which would make you continue to throw up. You're also not getting the protein that you need. Tell him that you are worried about a stricture too. I believe you've posted quite a few times that you are worried about that. Tell him everything. Make a list before you go, if you want. Sometimes there's so much you cant remember when you get there and are actually talking to the doc. Good luck
