    Wow!! Finally made it to the post op forum

    I had my RNY Monday Aug. 26th. Everything went well. Just one issue during surgery was my umbillucle hernia. It got in the way and so it took a little longer. All is well, I am home now and 4 days post op. Thank you for the support. :) Much Love, Amy
