What (if any) post-op lab work should someone that had RNY have?

I had open RNY on 2/8/02 and will be going in for my two month checkup in about a week and I would like to ask my doctor about any post-op lab work that should be done on a regular basis. Does any one else have any lab work run periodically? Examples: iron levels, calcuim levels, etc. If so, what ones? Should there be any certain ones I should insist on? How long post-op should they be done?
