How did people with history of slow healing fair after gastric surgery?

I have a history of slow healing and am concerned about slow healing after this surgery---hoping to have open RNY. Also fear infection. I am diabetic--not insulin dependent. I also fear having to have gall bladder sugery later if it is not removed at the time of the gastric surgery. Would like to hear from people who have had similar experiences prior to gastric surgery and how they did after their gastric surgery. How long can I realistically expect to be off work. My BMI is 65.
