So what's the "skinny"?
Aug 12, 2007
It's Sunday, August 12, 2007. I signed up for the OH on 8/10 and have been spending a lot of time reading to determine the "skinny" of having RNY surgery.
My biggest anxieties have to do with coming out of the surgery and the initial days following the surgery.
I have a girlfriend who had the surgery and she told me she had to ignore some of the stories she read about. She just made her decision to go forward and never looked back. She has done very well and is 2 years post op.
I have had surgeries before (knee surgery 5x, emergency c-section, etc.), but I feel more chicken than I would have ever expected.
Does anyone have any suggestions how to best handle the first few days/weeks following surgery? I'd greatly appreciate any in put!
Thanks! See ya later on this journey!
