Just curious..up until last Dec I used to go every two months...having had a hysterectomy in late January...I haven't been at all this year.

 

I am 4 years, 5 months post-op.

prior to surgery 323lbs....4 years post-op maintaining between 108- 114 lb loss. 

life is AMAZING when you continue on the right path~!.  Use your surgeons gift to the fullest~!

I go a minimum of 2x a year, more if I'm not feeling right.  I will never go a whole year again - too much can go wrong.

Hi Mary

Years 2 and 3 - I had my levels checked once per year.....now I have some Parathyroid issues so am having it checked every 3 months

When my PTH levels get back in line....I am going to have them done every 6 months....I agree with Dawn....a year is too long....at least for me it is
