Question:
Can anyone tell me about the pre-op thorascopy? And what happens during a Lap RNY?

I am scheduled for a Lap RNY in New Haven on 10/8, and am getting a little nervous about what I should have on hand when I get home. Also what I will be able to do and NOT be able to do? Most of the post-ops that I've spoken to tell me not to worry, I'll figure it out. That isn't good enough for me. I have 3 kids and need to be as prepared as possible. If ANYONE can share their experience from start to finish, PLEASE e-mail me and help me calm down just bit! Many thanks and conratulations to all of you on the "other" side. I hope to meet you there shortly!    — Angie B. (posted on September 11, 2002)
