Is lap RNY really worth waiting

6 months for, or going for open in about a month. I have been working with a wonderful surgeon locally that will only do the open RNY procedure on someone of my size, and I can get into surgery in about a month. However, I have recently been looking into having the surgery done lap due to the shortened healing time and such, but won't be able to get in to see that doctor (which is totally across the country) until late May. I am anxious to have this surgery done, but 6 months is not long I guess considering. What do ya'll think? Thanks for your thoughts!
