I am going on Monday for my 1 year checkup.

Anything I should ask the surgeon? I have not been a big question asker, because I had done so much research, and he covered so much, that at all of my previous check ups I never have any questions. This time I do want to know: 1. How far am I bypassed? 2. Is my pouch horizontal? 3. Why doesn't he see patients for more than 18 months. I would think for statistic's alone, he would want to monitor long term patients. Any thing else? Sharon Hagins Jacksonville, FL = Open RNY 05/13/02 Dr. Eric Thoburn Gainesville, Fl
