I am one week post-op today and I can't believe how great I feel. I went for my follow up appt today. My blood pressure was 111/66. Before surgery, I was always around 165/102 and that was with medication. I had severe edema? (swelling of my ankles and calves) and that has already gone away. I lost 24 lbs from the pre-op diet and another 5 since surgery. The first few days were rough but it improved quickly from there. I am going to return to work on Wednesday.
Thanks to everyone that posts on this board. I have already gained a lot of information and confidence. I wish the best for all of us.
