There are some particular issues that are for males only but in the whole most are gender neutral. Write me for specifics. Most males have a large amount of weight to lose. You can look at my profile to see details about loss etc.

Hi: I am one of the many "women" on this site. I can not say for sure, but, I think we must all react the same from surgery. If we have open surgery, we hurt like we would seem to expect. Morphine drip is great, but I had a reaction to it. I had a heck of a hard time concentrating on anything for a good 6 months, I could not seem to focus on anything for any length of time. Television, a book, some conversations almost anything that required a brain. Things got better and I function really good now, now I know it has been 5 years and 4 months, but it lasted for about 6 months, It slowly got better. Now this happened to be me, it may not happen to anyone else. Hang in there, some of the men may answer your message and they may have some other things to help you. keep in touch, man or woman, we are all here to help you. Best of luck, when is your surgery date?? Avis Gandy
