So hubby got approved for his surgery and has set a date (2 weeks!)
He is about 200 lbs overweight. Our surgeon told him she wants him to have an IVC filter placed the morning of the surgery. I'm a nurse so I'm familiar with the filters.
However, I have not heard of anyone having these prior to sleeve surgery. Anyone else heard of this?
Thanks,
Kelly
