I have had the Roux-N-Y surgery. I had open incision because I wanted the surgeon to be able to directly "eyeball" the surgery. Also, I doubted I would ever again wear a bikini so the scar was no concern!

An excellent book is the Dummies series Weight Loss Surgery for Dummies. The co-author, Barbara Thompson, is one of the foremost experts in the country on weight loss surgery. I found the book to be excellent reading both before and after the procedure.

If you have specific questions, please feel free to PM me. Best of luck to your husband.
