Hey! I haven't had my pre-op surgeon appt yet but at the nurse practitioner appt I definitely had a bunch of questions. Here's a few:
- Based on my body type, etc...what percentage of excess body weight could I expect to see in the best situation?
- What exercises are best post-op? Do you usually suggest Water aerobics, yoga, etc? Which are better than others to help promote healing?
- Is there an emergency line that I can call specifically for bariatric patients?
- What type of clothing should I wear post-op at the hospital and at home following the hospital?
- How long do you expect me to stay at the hospital?
- How much movement can I expect to be doing during the first few days post-op?
- What are the signs and symptoms of something going wrong post-op?
