RNY on 01/03/13

I would love to join the Facebook group, i just have one question. Is it private? Only a handful of my Facebook friends know I am getting the RNY and I am not ready to tell everyone yet.

VSG

Its closed right now, and once we have everyone who wants to join i'll make it private.
basically all anyone can see now are members and even the group title is just January 2013, very non descript.

Hi, to everyone. i'm new to posting but been lurking on the OH website for sometime now. I'm scheduled for surgery on the 16th of January. I'm currently on full liquids and trying my best to adhere. Best of luck to all.

I can do ALL things through Christ who strengthens me

DS on 01/24/13

I am reading through these posts.....this one certainly has a lot of them! I am scheduled for revision from band to DS on 1/24... So I am right with you guys:) just want to put it out there... Just remember a lot of chapsticks have petroleum which is a no no if you are going to be a patient with oxygen needs. As an RN, we have to tell families to bring that stuff back home....and make sure your doc and nurses know if you bring your home meds and vitamins....usually the fits are no problem....especially the bariatric ones. The other OTC ones and prescriptions are another no no to bring...that will all be apart of your med list in the hospital your doc will already have for you. My suggestion is....talk to your doc and nurses during pre op appt.
