venous stasis- swelling in the feet and ankles

i have a question i am a female bmi of 45.5and i wiegh 264.5 and i am 5'4 tall i have been over wieght for my whole life adult and child hood i have been dealing with this venous stasis that i was diagnosis with about 1 year ago but i have had it for about 6 years and it is now at the point that it is really bad so that is why i am going for the RNY surgery ... i just want to know if when i get this surgery and i lose like 100lbs if my ankles will go down to normal!? if i wear sandels that is when they getting swollen or if i go barefoot for a long time .. but if i wear sneakers i am fine becuase of the compression!  thanks for reading !

My venous stasis didn't become evident until AFTER I lost over 200 pounds. I now have to wear compression garments, and like you cannot wear sandals, have to avoid the heat, and my ankles balloon when I exercise. I am sorry to say that weight loss may help, but does not correct venous stasis.

You could have significant improvement.  I have similar stats to yours for height and weight.  With nearly 150 lbs gone, swelling has improved tremendously. 

I use compression socks and elevate my legs as needed.  However, it is nothing like what it was.  Also, being smaller with lean limbs, I can spot any edema when it first begins.
