Are wheelchair bound patients candidates for gastric bypass?

July 13, 2018
Asked By:Gossett76 in Missouri

I weight about 260 pounds and am 5’6. I’m. Worried about the sagging skin after surgery because the loose skin I have now already gets red, raw, and is very painful. I’m wheelchair bound due to an autoimmune disease. Do you have any suggestions?
