I took 6 weeks of from work( and enjoyed every minute ) and I felt great it all depends on your surgeon ad how high impact and physical you are in your job. I work in a busy emergency room so I needed the 6 weeks off . I did well and showered when I got home.

There needs to be a medical reason like infection in folds of the skin is the main reason they will pay for it

By weight gain I mean a 6 pound difference

Thanks for all the ideas! Still waiting and trying to decide what to say' date=' if anything. Teachers do not get vacation days during the school year, so that won't work.[/quote']Well then do it over the summer and then you won't have to explain much!

I did not tell many people I worked with unless they directly asked me. As I work with many back stabbing judgmental people. I explained that I had PCOS that was causing infertility and needed to lose weight and with my pcos I had. Hard time Losing weight . And that is why my doctors and I decided it would be a good idea to have surgery. I am sure now that I have been out of work for 3 weeks people have gotten all the talking about me out of there system by he time I get back to work in three weeks.
I do recommend telling people if they directly ask. I had a co worker that had the gastric sleeve done and told people she had a hernia repair. So when the truth comes out its not good . Best of luck and do what is best for you and your family

Hello all I am just wondering if anyone else had gastric bypass due to pcos? Just want to know how much it helped with the many many symptoms that come along with the pcos? I have see a decrease in my cravings for the carbs and the sweets and I actually got my period for the first time in a long time I am sleeping better . So I am just wondering if other people have the same pcos struggles
