I have been going back and forth between a DS and an RnY for quite a while and was certain I wanted to fight for a DS. Now that I am two days away from meeting with my surgeon, I realized that the RnY is a much smarter choice for my situation and long story. The trouble is that all my collected "Doctor info" is for a DS.

I seem to remember there were a few threads for pre-ops that were pretty much all encompassing from "What to ask your surgeon" to "What to take to the hospital." Anyone have the links to one or more of these? I just want to make sure there's nothing I am forgetting.

 I dont know where those links are - not sure if there is a problem on OH today or not, but please, feel free to ask as many questions as you want - people on here answer all the time!

It's pretty much what I was searching for.

Wow-I landed back here with TWO days before your surgery!! YOU have indeed been fighting the long fight!!

How are you feeling??

Good to see you.

Peace,

No, surgery is still a month off. Holy CRAP! A month from today, in fact! But I am meeting with my surgeon on Tuesday.

I am good. Needed an OH break. lol Getting really excited, though!

Have you been away from OH too? I've been gone for mega months!

Anyway-glad to see you here and see your fight for this is coming to a successful end!

Cheers,
T
