Hi, from a fellow Bournemouth patient. I had my op nearly 9 wks ago, bobsbigboy had his nearly 3 mths ago and Colopation a bit longer ago again. We are all doing well and losing our excess weight. You'll be on ward 17, they are lovely there. Say hi to Rhiannon and Lyndsay if she's not on maternity leave yet.
Feel free to get in touch if there is anything I can do to help out or advise on we are all willing to share our experiences& offer help. Penny.

Hi,

Thanks for all your replies - my questions are just the same as everyone elses, just like you said. I do have one for the guys at Bournemouth though - how long were you in for and did you have to inject heparin (don't we worry about the strangest things!). Thanks x
