Having surgery on Oct. 18th could use some advice!

Hi I am new to this site I am going to have an RNY On October 18th. I am scared and excited at the same time. Dr. Oh from St Francis is doing the surgery. I need all the support and encouragement right-now. I am encouraged by the pictures and the posts. I would also like to find support groups in my area, in Tacoma. I also am taking the vitamins and protein, I hope that my body will be better prepared. I have a question, How long after surgery can you not lift, and things like housework vacuuming etc. I also have a horse and I am hoping that I won't be out too long so I can ride and stuff. Any advice or help would be so appreciated thanks

Congrats & Good Luck!

Thanks for the encouragement, I look forward to talking to you thanks for the little guys and the clapping hands they are really funny and cute!!! Elaine B.

Congratulations! I'm having my Fobi Pouch on the same day! I've got to be at the hospital at 5:30 a.m. - ugh! Good luck and let me know how you're doing, surgery sister.
