Well surgery is behind me now thank goodness but I have another conditon that needs attention very soon. I have a rapid cataracts growing on my left eye and maybe on my right but driving places i am not familar with are difficult. So if you were me would you look into having the cateract removed very soon this soon after wls? I really want to see better. It is so hard to watch Star Trek DVD's with Lee with one eye.                                                 Annie

I would consult w/both surgeons to be sure that it's safe. It's such a quality of life issue and it's one that you can make. I think when it's safe, you are a tough resilient lady and should go for it.

Just my two cents.

Thanks for your input Barbara,

I go see Dr. Farrel tomorrow and I am going to talk to him about this.

Lee and I are planning a small trip to take our boat out on the sound at the Ounter Banks towards the end of this week or next weekend.

I would love to totally enjoy it with better sight.

I will let you know what we decide this week concerning my eyes.

BTW mother gae me a fit yesterday saying I was doing to much since my surgery.

I dare not tell her we did go to target yesterday and I walked through half of the store.

I told Lee the way for me to get my energy back was to go shopping LOL

Annie- I think you should talk with your WLS surgeon regarding this. I can't imagine having the WLS would limit you. I'll be curious about his answer.
