Well, although I posted originally back in the summer, I was delayed for gastric bypass surgery till 2 weeks ago on 9 Nov. Discharged that Thursday, and learning to eat again ever since.
14 days out and I'm down 27 lbs. No complications, not a one, has been very smooth recovery, still a little tender but I get a whole 2 oz of turkey this Thanksgiving. I will also say the VA med center was EXCELLENT in prep and recovery. Treated me like gold! The only thing they would not do is help me out of bed. Said I had to do that on my own while they stood over me to make sure I didn't fall. Hands down the absolute best care I've ever received.
