I am going in for surgery next week. I can't remember the last time i felt this nervous  and excited at the same time.  My doctor has mentioned that a certain BMI requires open surgery. Does anyone know the BMI limit for lap gastric bypass. Thank you

Hello,

Unfortunately, I don't but that's a good question.   All the best on your surgery next week.

Wish I could help ya with that. I'm a newbie. But it seems that it depends on the surgeon's comfort level as well.?. Please let us know how you do! Jules
