Some things you should know before surgery:
  • You will lose weight with this surgery.
  • You will be in bed for up to a month, so you will lose all of your muscle.
  • Give enough blood so that you don't have to worry about other people's blood.
  • Don't worry, you will not feel the metal that is put into your back.
  • You will lose your modesty because middle-aged strangers will sponge-bathe you.
