Topic: RE: my nephew needs WLS but he is affraid?
It was a piece of cake. Had the laproscopic RNY. The operation only lasted about an hour. Was out of hospital on 3rd morning. Mimimum pain and the incisions healed in about 2 weeks. It's very rare to have anyone die on the table. This is not heart surgery. More people die from ater surgery problems, most often from blood clots because they wouldn't get out of bed and walk. At my hospital they put inflatible cuffs on my legs that forced circulation when lying down or sleeping, but they encourage you to walk the halls after surgery to prevent blood clots. My experience was very positive. Of course it helps if you have complete confidence in your surgeon. Mine had done over 900 RNY's with no fatalities, so I wan't worried in the least. Jer

Hey mandy my name is Jasmine. Its soo awesome to talk to other teens like me who are going through the same thing. I hope your surgery goes really well. keep us posted
Topic: Hi everyone
Isn't this just awesome. I love the fact that they finally realized that having a peer to talk to going through this is a lot better than talking to someone that isn't your age. If any one has had the surgery and has any tips holla back at at my email: [email protected]
