Is it possible to have RNY and hysterectomy at the same time?

Just recently it was found out I have a complex adnexal mass on my left ovary. The CAT scan showed that it could also be adhered to the bowel but won't know until they get in there to see. I have been fighting for insurance approval for over two years for RNY. Just two days ago I finally got that approval and in writing no less. Now, should I really try and get things coordinated to have these surgeries done at the same time? My open laparotomy with the hysterectomy is already setup for end of June. Or if I have to wait, any ideas how long of recovery it would be before scheduling for the RNY? I appreciate any information anyone has to share with me about this. I sure hate to wait but I want to what is best for my health at this time. There is a 30% that this mass is cancer and my OB GYN said that they might not want to do the surgeries at the same time for that reason alone. Thanks for any input you may have.
