What do all the abbreviations mean?
No problem!
WLS is weight Loss Surgery
RNY is - Roux - en -Y (gastric bypass)
DS is duodenal switch (another tpe of procedure)
VS is Verticle sleev, yet another procedure.
Thats all I can think of right now. If you see more you don't recognize, just add em here and I'll fill you in! Hope this helps!
Thanks for asking, as I know before I knew what it all meant I felt really lost!
Hugs!
