Having Other Surgeries (Not WLS) As a Bariatric Surgery Patient - How to Prepare, What to Consider

[@frankieren8791]

Having worked as a Neuro and Ortho RN I really appreciate your videos. They are educational without being boring. Am going through the hoops for bariatric surgery. Wasn't by choice, but necessary for other surgeries. Wasn't going to have, because postop fear, which would have complicated, if able to perform, other surgeries. Watching your videos have calmed my fears. Love how your pain management is very similar to mine. Remember rest is essential to healing, which is also hard for me.❤ Please continue your videos. Continue to heal and enjoy your new possibilities. 😊

This has been so helpful! I am getting the bypass for that same reason. I eventually will be having both hips and knees replaced.

Praise God that you made through two surgeries. I understand people may not see all surgeries than same. But to me any surgery is serious. And what's with these doctors and the rude comments they've given you? 🤔💕 Telling someone they're going to die because they can't take antibiotics. Really?! Goodness. The nerve of some people.

My bariatric surgeon is very against NSAIDs too.

Check with a Cardiologist. mine says baby aspirin is now not a good preventive med. they do not recommend it. I’m on a blood thinner for life as a preventive.

I HAD RIGHT HIP REPLACEMENT 2.5 YRS. AGO. IT WAS AWFUL I SHOULD HAVE STAYED IN THE HOSPITAL A FEW DAYS. IT HURT AND WAS MISSERABLE. I HAD A HYSTERECTOMY YEARS AGO AND RIGHT KNEE REPLACEMENT AND REVISION FROM INFECTION `1 MONTH LATER. YOU ARE A BRAVE SOLE. I HAVW A LOT OF ANTIBIOTIC ALLERGIES ALSO.

Just in the last few days I have found out I am in need of two surgeries. Nothing is booked yet. I am stressed and anxious about this whole process. One of them is also a hysterectomy. Thank you for this video, and giving me an idea of what I can expect.

Anything you can share about constipation is helpful. I NEVER had it prior to surgery and really struggle now, even though I get my fluids in.

Thank you so much for sharing this information. Despite all you’ve recently been through, do you regret having WLS? Or you’re still so glad you did? 😊

[@SashT16]

I am in the process for approval.

[@nicoleislosingit]
