A few days away for my RNY!

Hello gentlemen!

Happy to see there is a guy's forum on here, seems all the others are dominated by the "other-half" [emoji23]

I'm scheduled for my RNY this coming Monday 7/12. Excited, nervous and all those other emotions that come with it.. I'll be posting my progress as I go, as I'm sure I'll need some advice from our seasoned WLS

But at the moment, I've been on the liquid diet now for about a week and a 1/2 and have noticed issues getting an erection the last couple of days. Anyone else experiance this while on liquids only? If so did it all clear up post op? It's pretty troubling to say the least.

Thanks a lot!

-Mike

No issues other than the norm with the liquid diet. I do have issues from time to time but I think it's due to the meds I'm on. Killed my libido and when I was drinking it didn't last long when it did work.

I'm 2 days post op, had my VSG on the 12th this past thursday. (Think you typed your numbers wrong). I think do to the trauma of the surgery or the pain pills or combo of everything, Junior has no interest in coming out to play at all. BUT from all I read and heard from other WLS male patients that all goes away and it's like we are teenagers again. Can't wait for that stage. I know the wife won't be happy.....

Maybe it's just the emotions of what's to come. I wouldn't worry about it to much. Give it time and see how things go. If you have issues down the line bring it up with your PCP. Good luck with it all, especially your surgery and recovery!!!
