What would you do if this happened to you?

I went in for my two year check up today with a new surgeon. Found out that when I had my surgery two years ago they took out my left falopian tube due to a cyst...which I was told was on my ovary and never told that my falopian tube was totally removed from my body. I was never told what type of surgery I had until today - open Roux-en-Y bypass....no blood was ever taken for labs during these two years...my new surgeon was flabergasted... I lost 65 pounds the first year and nothing after that. He put me on a medical grade protein supplement that is 100% absorbed in the body. All the vitamins, etc i've been taking "WASTED" no one told me I had to take chewable everything cuz the part of my intestine is bypassed. ARGH! I'm low in protein, low in iron, you name it - i'm a mess. So now I'm put on a diet of one protein shake for breakfast one for lunch and 1/2 cup of something protein for supper....which is fine.. But I wish I would have known all this before...SOME DOCTORS! I found a wonderful doctor now! But just thought i'd throw this out there to see if anyone had this happen or what you would do if you found out two years later that one of your body parts was missing and you didn't know it. Thanks guys - hopefully i'm on the path to weight loss again under the instruction of a WONDERFUL doctor. GOD BLESS!
