C-Section mom's any problems with scar tissue and RNY?
I have had 2 c-sections one in 2006 and one in 2004. My 2004 one got badly infected but does this have any impact on RNY? I have also had my tonsils out as a child and gallbladder out in 2011.
My surgeon got my c-section records and has not called me with any concerns.. so i don't know! Anyone else have multiple c-sections and no problems getting the surgery?
STOP IT !! STOP IT!! STOP IT!! EVERYTHING WILL BE FINE!!
She would have called you if she saw anything in your report that worried her.
Now for those of you who want to get mad at me for yelling at her.........we know each other LOL!!
Karen i AM a worrier you should have known this from the beginning i think it is why you stopped answering my calls LMAOOO JOKING!~ Yes we do know each other haha She will probably be just as relieved as me when i am post op LOL
I was thrilled to be able to use my caesarian and appendix scarring to get my VSG. In Ontario, adhesions (internal scarring) is among the few qualifications that allows a VSG instead of an RNY and I was ecstatic to get my choice! I'm not certain that all surgeons use these parameters, but I couldn't have been happier at the time or 3.5 years later.
Best wishes in getting what you're hoping for and make sure to do your due diligence on choice of surgery as we are all different!
You will promote wound healing if you use proper hygiene (wash your hands with soap and water before touching your incision) and avoid wearing tight fitting clothing that can rub on your incision. Also drink plenty of water (as tolerated post op). Perhaps add some extra vitamin C to your diet before you go in for the procedure. Vitamin C is essential for fighting infections, wound healing and coping with stress. Excellent food sources of vitamin C include broccoli, bell peppers, parsley, Brussels sprouts, cauliflower, lemon juice, strawberries, mustard greens. Most importantly do not stress over the "What if's????" Try to calm down. I know that you are anxious but try to "stop" and BREATHE.
I don't think a C- section comes in the way of any bariatric weight loss surgery. Having a RNY should be no problem at all.
