Kelly,
When does most people start getting blood work done?

Most surgeons do labs every three months the first year, so starting three months post op.  Then they either recommend doing them once or twice a year for life.  I get mine done every six months.  I think a year is too long to go without checking anything.

Just PM me your email address and I'll send it to you.  I don't think there is a way to attach something to a PM here, or if there is, I don't know how to do it.

Would you mind sending it to me? I think it would really be helpful and would show my PCP and surgeon that I am taking this very seriously.
I don't know how to do a spread sheet but my daughter does , so I am sure she can help me ( in between working full time and 3 kids )
Thanks in advance

Sure, just PM me your email address.  All you have to do on this spreadsheet is type in the numbers each time you get labs done.  It's easy to add or delete labs, if you get other stuff done than what I put on the spreadsheet.

Kelly I track my labs also (need to do the ones I just completed).  I want/need a better spreadsheet mine is getting way to long and not easily to view/manipulate.  Do you use an excel spreadsheet, something I can use to graph my ranges if I want?
