Tomorrow is One Week Post - Op
My RNY was one week ago tomorrow.
Thank you to all of the members who emailed their comments on various
questions I raised durinig the “waiting” period.
I had one surprise. I have rheumatoid arthritis and had been on some
pretty strong drugs until a few weeks before the surgery. The surgeon
told me that the tissue was more difficult to manipulate and that my
recovery would be probably be a little slower. This is something I am
finding to be true.
I would like to know if any of you had rhematoid arthritis before the
surgery and if so, what meds you were on before the surgery and how it’s
been during and after recovery.
In all other respects, I’m doing fine - but healing a little more slowly
than anticipated.
Thanks again for the help and support.
