Newbie here!

Hi everyone. I saw my surgeon yesterday and my operation is scheduled for 12th November. I have a question. The company I am paying to do the VSG for me provide a years aftercare. Is that enough? Thank you

Thanks, Candice. I called the company today explaining my concern and they assured me that although my monitoring would finish after a year I would be free to contact them with any concerns/questions whenever I liked. That seems fair to me. Good luck for the 30th and keep me posted :)

My surgery is tomorrow! I'm super nervous but I'm sure I'll be excited once the first week is over!!! Good luck to everyone!
