"S/P" is medical shorthand for the term "status post" and generally refers to a timeframe, as in "I am 4 month s/p RNY" (meaning, I had my RNY procedure 4 months ago). And, there are no stupid questions! ;->

I agree with Julie it means "status post" don't worry I didn't know either until I entered the medical field.

I never heard of that til now and never even saw it! So even us here for a while learn new things! DAILY! I usually just say "PO" for post operative...or pre-op for the obvious... I think on the boards there is actually a glossary somewhere of abreviations of terms and board lingo!
