Guest guest Posted June 2, 1999 Report Share Posted June 2, 1999 I had two operations in Switzerland in less than one year: one for the gastric banding, the other one for my back. For the first one, they put me on my feet as soon as possible to go to the bathroom, and to make some steps. For the back operation, I had to stay longer in bed after it, and didn't need to go to the bathroom as I had a ... (don't know the word in English, but it's a tube taking the urine in a plastic pouch). Anyway. Both times, several times a day, they put on my legs a sort of vibrating leggings, to help the blood circulation. I also had once a day an injection to lighten the blood. I guess that in Switzerland they take this problem very seriously ... Cheers, Marina, Switzerland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
