When having surgery, the medical team will want to monitor your oxygen levels in your blood (usually in a non invasive way). This will be done by attaching a pulse oximetry machine to your finger or toe.
The machine is trying to measure how much haemoglobin is in your system. If you're wearing nail polish, it creates a barrier and an inaccurate reading.

Of course not!! Who told you that? While appendixes aren't needed, no surgery is mandatory if it isn't necessary, and the only time an appendix ever need be removed is in cases of acute appendicitis, in which not removing it would kill the patient.

What is it like before and after gastric bypass surgery?
Gastric surgery before and after can look pretty astonishing. People can lose 60%-70% of their weight after the surgery. Of course, the most important thing to think about before the surgery are the side effects. Surmising how much side effects can affect your life shouldn't take too much of your time. Don't ruminate on it excessively. Get accurate advice from a medical physician that really knows what he or she is talking about and look at the medical literature. There is no reason why you should just look at the before and after pictures of gastric recipients and think that is enough to make a decision on.
