I had LVRS and it is the best thing i could have done, I feel if i did not have it i would have been dead. But a few days after i got home i got pneumonia on my right lung and a blood clot on my left lung. Be sure you wear the socks and also have the injections in the belly to try stop blood clots

Hi, I had this operation last August, and feel much better for it. Have a look at the related posts on the right, you’ll find others experiences have been generally favourable. Good luck!
