Make an appt for a consultation. You will have a better idea. I was worried about the same and I just had mine done. I have different insurance. What is your BMI?

Hey Clif! I am excited to find someone who is going through this about the same time I am. I had my surgery on the 19th and am home. I am following the discharge instructions to a Tee. I was expecting to feel a million dollars but am not quite there yet. This is to be expected. They are making incisions in your belly. Your bowel will change your will have a few days of emotions which is normal. You will go through a little grieving process (like when someone dies) in this case your old habits. I am still kind of in that but I understand what is going on. I am up walking around but a little sore yet. Getting in and out of bed is hard and coughing. I am going to start some mini walks tomorrow to see how that goes. I am already losing some weight! I am not going to push it right now though. Have a Water bottle on hand and get your items you will need from the grocery store before surgery. that way you dont have to mess with it when you are done. !!!! You will do fine!:confused:
