I'm 60. Anyone else over 50 doing RNY?



Recommended Posts

I agree that everyone is different. I knew about the gas pain. Well had been told it was possible. Thought I had lucked out then Bam! It was there. I am so glad that it did not last long and wasn't any worse than it was. Ever since except feeling hungry I am doing good. One week in see the doctor today for my one week check up.

And all the congregation says--- AMEN! Sorry long evangelical background, mine Church of Christ, Methodist, maried into Nazarene and Church of Christ in Christian Union, must have been 12 before I found out not everyone goes to Camp Meetings and Revivals! So mine is L0LBPTL. Laugh out loud but Praise the Lord!

I'm 51. I know I will be one of those people who really wishes they'd done it much earlier! I can only go forward from here.

And we will all be here for you anytime you need to talk. Over 50s have successful surgeries, so do 60s and 70s, no reason to believe you're exempt for victory. We wanted it even more than our daughters and grandaughters for we know what a life without surgery is like. So use your Baby Boom gumption for a good purpose-YOU! We will be anxious to see all you can be, cause we think you're dynamite already. So nothing to it but to do it!

I agree completely. We so got this with our strong will and determination. I am here anytime someone would like to talk, vent, soundboard. It is an honor to be in this age group and look forward to our success.

Hi! I’m 54 and just had RNY on 11/28/18 - a little over 3 weeks ago. I’m doing great! With all the pre-testing, the Dr and team will make sure your a candidate for the surgery. Age is just a number!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
