I know the c-section vs RNY has been covered before...but...

I have some questions...For those of you who have commented earlier on the pain of a c-section as compared to either Open or Lap RNY, I would like to know if your RNY pain was worse, are you much older now? More overweight than when you had a C-section? ...And if your situation compares to mine, I would really appreciate your input...I had a c-section 2 years ago, and I only weigh about 15 pounds more now than I did then. I was able to stop at the store on the way home, and the pain was under control with Tylenol for the first few days. After about a week I felt totally back to normal. I am about 300 pounds now, and pending insurance approval, I will be having Lap RNY in the middle of August. Anyway, I am hoping that it goes as well as my C-section, but would like to hear your opinions on it before having my husband start planning his time off...and making arrangements for my mom to come and help out. Thanks!! :)
