How long between insurance approval and surgery date?
My insurance never approved me. I had to take money out of my retirement but to me it was worth it.

Discouragement
I had surgery June 4. I told some family and close friends about my decision. I haven’t told many others. They just see me losing weight. Surround yourself with people who support you. You know what is best for your body.

Recent RNY - How ya doing?
I had RNY on June 4 and I’m feeling pretty good. I still have some pain because I was cut deeper than usual due to a previous surgery in the same area. I am down 41 pounds. And am just taking it one day at a time.

5 years post op and have huge REGRET!
I had the fundiplocation surgery in 2006. I had gastric bypass surgery in June. The surgeon chose bypass over the sleeve because of the previous surgery. I hope you’re feeling better soon.

Students who underwent ByPass Surgery : How many days/weeks did you take off of College ?
I was one of the people that needed longer to heal after bypass surgery. I was absolutely miserable and the pain on my left side where I was cut shill hurts today. When I asked the doctor about it he said the famous line that everyone heals differently. Best of luck to you.
