Ok so here's what happened.

I saw Dr. Brengman yesterday. As you know I havent been following up with a surgeon since my 2 month mark(over 6 months ago). I had fired my surgeon that did my RNY at that point and believed I was different and didnt need help.
Dr. Brengman read my surgical notes and was concerned as well as talking to him to what I am able to eat(no I dont need wrong foods) he felt he needed to see what exactly the old surgeon did in reference to the surgery. Dr. Brengman wants to do an Endroscopy ASAP.
I am awaiting a call from the office as to when and where I need to get it done.

He didnt say.. He just said he has concerned. I told him afterwards I questioned my old surgeon did he really do surgery or just cut on me. Dr. Brengman said we will soon find out.
