the next morning i was assesed by my sergeon and he mentioned i was going to stop in hospital for the forthcoming week and the reason was i had seveer swelling on my food pipe and this what the reason causing my sickness.

guys if you all could help it would be amazing if you could answer my questions individually so i can get a wide inset into peoples opinions, feed back, criticisms and knowledge

ill give you my background

im 21 years of age,im 21 stone (294 pounds) iv been going to my obesity clinic for up-to 4 years now, in which my weight has increased over the years. im currently in the early stages of surgery, having regular trips to the dietitian, to see the dr, and this week im going to see a respiratory doctor.iv still got to have a "sleep test" and have to attend regular concealing sessions, iv been told my ill be waiting till early nexy year before surgery my questions are:

* How many more appointments will i have before surgery

* Is all these appointments necessary

* How are your emotions pre and post op

* How long till you are up on your feet again

* Is there a limit what i could loose

* Does your mindset change post op

* How long did it take to adapt yourself to new eating habits

* Does the NHS have much to do with yourselves post op

sorry about asking these questions, i seem to not get a straight answer when i go to the hospital. if you could help i would be so thankful

thank you people
