My RNY surgery is scheduled for June 13th and there is a concert I would like to attend on June 21st, eight days after my surgery. It is a country concert, so real low key and I will be able to sit for the most part. I was wondering if any of you felt you would have been up for something like that so soon after your surgery. We hardly ever get concerts where I am, so I would really like to go. It will probably be my only chance to see this artist. Thanks for the advice!

Well I had my surgery on a wenesday and on Friday I took my kids skating I sat for the most part but was riding in the car and standing and walking with no problems! But it all depends on the person I'm the type of person that has a very high pain tolerance and I never used pain meds in the hospital or once I came home! Good luck to you on your upcoming surgery!!

Well I haven't had my surgery mine is June 5 but the first thing that came to mind was your water intake! Don't get dehydrated!

I had surgery on the 21st and was able to attend a class reunion on the 30th. I took bottled water with me...and wasn't ready to dance but I think that its because I was still getting used to being alcohol free. I was a party monster prior to surgery! Lol

Thanks! I think I'm going to go!
