Oh goodness you have me worried KristenLe! I will look at the levels and post. I am not at home. Maybe they can start treatment now! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Hey Everyone, I went for my pre-op testing this past Monday, which included LOTS of blood work. I would like to preface this by saying...I did place a call to the MD office, but have not heard back from them yet. It appears to my untrained eyes that I am quite Anemic, so I am wondering if this will improve with surgery, or get worse? Anyone have experience with this? Thanks!
