Leg compression cuffs at night
kim36517 replied to kim36517's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
We have the same doctor. I could not remember how long I needed to wear them. I loved him. My sleeve was 3/10 Sent from my SM-G900R6 using the BariatricPal App -
Has anyone's surgeon sent them home with a set of the leg compression cuffs to wear night? Mine did, but I don't know how long I have to use them. My BMI was low enough I didn't need to be put on blood thinners. Sent from my SM-G900R6 using the BariatricPal App

Thank you for the information. I never thought about the narcotics slowing things down. I think I will wait.

Hi Everyone. I was wondering if anyone had to have another surgery the same year as their WLS? I was sleeved on 3/10/16 and have a torn meniscus in my left knee that will require surgery? Just wondering how long I will have to wait? Thank you.

Hi everyone. My sleeve is tomorrow morning and I am so nervous. I know this is going to be the best thing for me and my health. But I am so scared something will go wrong. Is this normal?

I had looked into Dr Heider. What type of leak test does he do? Dr weiss in Lexington does an endoscopy before and after surgery to check for leaks.
