BPD Surgery, have you had this?
Hi everyone,
I am new to the forum and am so glad I found it!
Has anyone out there had Biliopancreatic Diversion surgury? Due to other health issues this is the surgery that Dr. Roye is performing on me. Date will be offered soon. This will be an open surgery. He will also perform a Heller myotomy at the same time, this is to repair problems with my esophogus.
If you have had or know someone who has had this surgery I would love to hear from you!
Thanks, Anna

Hi Anna. A friend of my had her gastric bypass w Dr Roye and she has raved about him consistently. Im having surgery w Dr Ryder - one of his partners and she has been and Im sure will be just as great. Keep faith in knowing that the Dr is experienced and has a staff and support system with him to assist in your procedure. Best of luck & God Bless.

Hi Melissa,
Thanks for the kind words. Your date for surgery is coming up, how are you feeling about that?
My date is the 20th of April, will be in hospital for 6-7 days because I'm having surgery on my esophogus at the same time.
We may just meet one another there!
Keep in touch will you? Would be nice to have a buddy who will be dealing with issues at same time.
God Bless

Hi Anna! Yes surgery is coming up quickly as is yours! I should only be there two nights but will be thinking of you when you're in the hosp on the 20th. The docs are great and the staff at RIH is great too. I'm getting nervous and scared but know is the right decision for me and that Im going to be in great hands! I'll absolutely keep in touch and would love to have a buddy to go through these new issues with!
Talk with you soon! Melissa
Talk with you soon! Melissa

Good Morning Melissa,
My class is on the 8th, and you? My husband is coming with me, hopefully. What have you stocked up on for your return home? I'm waiting for the class to be sure I'm on the right track. Have a list ready but still would rather wait
Is your surgery laparascopic or open? Dr. was going to do open, but now said he will try laparascopic. I told him I want it right not fast, he laughed and agreed wholeheartedly.
So I decided to rent an electric recliner for a few weeks after reading laying flat at first will be very uncomfortable.
How are you doing otherwise? I have had a day or two of the jitters, night is a little worse, but overall not too bad. My history includes 13 orthopeadic surgeries during the last 10 years due to cronic arthritis which put me out of work for good in 2000. I think with that history I know a little too much about the ways of surgery and recovery, ignorance really is bliss.
I'm rambling on here so will sign off for now, write often will you?
Have a happy Easter
Anna

Hi Anna. My preop class is the 8th too!! So I'll be nice to meet you there 
I'm having laproscopic surgery with Dr Ryder...she's in Dr Royes office. She did my gallbladder surgery in 12/08 and she was great and has been so patient and knowledgable all the way through so I'm excited that she's such a great surgeon. I am getting nervous too..my anxiety is a bit thru the roof! I haven't purchased anything yet for post op as I'm not really sure what I'll need so I'm waiting for the preop class next week and then heading to the market or GNC or wherever that afternoon once we get all knowledgable about what's to come.
Looking forward to meeting you & your husband there!
Happy Easter to you too.
