Need LIST of Bloodwork. New Dr. Clueless
Hi there, I just got a new Dr. and my medical record from the old one appears to have disappeared. My new Dr. has no clue what really NEEDS to be checked on a Bastric Bypass Patient. Anyone with a list or a link to a list would be greatly appreciated. The few tests she did do found I was Enemic, so I really want to be sure I have the whole package checked. THANKS Penny 7/2002 LAP RNY 300/150
