I had VSG three days ago. The big surprise was my doctor told me to quit taking 2 of my blood pressure meds and my statin on discharge instructions. Thrilled about that. Am taking my BP regularly to be sure it doesn't get high again. So already reaping benefits from my weight loss presurgery.

And this is only the beginning. So many more achievements, benefits & blessings ahead for you too. Congratulations.

That's fantastic!!! You are already a healthier person!! Congrats!!

Wow, that's incredible. I guessed they would drop or reduce blood pressure meds in a few months as the weight comes off, not at discharge.

Maybe because I lost 40 pounds preop and was on 3. I am still on one.
