Excitement!
Got the call on Friday, that I get to meet my Surgeon on March 17th at TWH! Getting so excited one step closer to Surgery date :)
A question I did have, those of you who had surgery, 1 did you get oxygen in recovery? and 2 how long were you in recovery for? I had my GB out in Jan of 2016 and they said they had a hard time waking me up and my oxygen wouldnt stay above 95 in recovery. That was a day surgery and I know I will be admitted for the RNY, but just curious of other peoples recoeverys.
Thanks all :)
