LONG TERM CARE:
Although the short term effects of the surgical weight reduction treatment is well understood, there are still questions in reference to its long term effects to the nutritional and body systems that need responses.
The nutritional deficiencies must be studied for many years.
With time, you will need periodic anemia check ups (low hemoglobin count in the blood) and vitamin B12, as well as levels of folate and iron.
Initially follow up check ups were done every 3 to six months or more often if required after every 1 or two years.
