Shower about did me in
RNY on 02/24/12
I had an open surgery for RNY with a lap band removal. Also, had cysts removed for biopsy and gallbladder removed. I felt I did well post op as far as healing but the fatigue was an issue. It was several weeks before I could shower and not feel worn out afterwards. The daily walks were also exhausting. All that is behind me but I continue to have a lot of fatigue that I attribute to having fibromyalgia and arthritis. Still life is so much better weighing half what I did preop.
