How to prepare for gastric bypass surgery?

In: Surgery and Hospitalization [Edit categories]

Answer:

It depends upon what you mean by "how to prepare." If you are talking about starting from the beginning of the process of finding a surgeon and going through all of the pre-op requirements, that's a long answer. If you're talking about what to do the last day or days before surgery, each hospital does surgery prep a little differently. It is best to follow your own doctor's pre-op instructions.
