Hi again,

Thanks

I had a limited set of labs (thyroid, CBC, etc., and major vitamins only) at 3 months out (via my PCP) then a full set at 6 months and a year out (via my RNY surgeon).  I have as the, yearly since then, with follow-up labs when there were vitamins that were low and needed increased.

I did labs every three months the first year and every six months after that.
