It may be different where you are but in the US surgeons generally don't concern themselves with anything outside of the surgery itself. And they are selling this surgery - their bias is to downplay any problems with it. There are internists who specialize in people who have had the surgery. How you find them or how helpful they really are I don't know but it's almost got to be better than asking the surgeon.
