Hello everyone, I'm new here but been here researching. I've received my surgery date from Dr. Gornichec, 11/27. Excited but scared. The Dr. suggested I have a filter put in prior to surgery to reduce blood clot chances. I'd appreciate hearing from anyone that had this done as to pain, discomfort, etc.

Welcome, I am scheduled for the 28th.  I don't know anything about the filter.  You should check the RNY board, they seem to have lots of info.

Welcome to the Okie board and Congrats on your date! Sorry, but I don't know anything about the filter either. I'm Dot, married to Josh, mom of 2 girls and live in Bartlesville.  I'm still going through all the tests I have to have done before I even get my first consult with the surgeon! I had the cardio stress test today and echo.  I'll give details later. Nice to have ya here! Dot*
