I will be banded on January 12th too!!! However, it will be in Upstate NY. I do not have any pre-op paperwork yet... Maybe I should call my surgeon? I was there yesterday and gave them the paperwork I need them to fill out for me to take the time off work.

Congratulations!

The only paperwork I have is the list of things I can eat for the 60 days after surgeory.

Will you be spending New Years on the liquid diet too?

Hello Everyone,

This is my first post I started all of this in August 2009, I didn't post because I was waiting for my surgery to be approved.... Just heard yesterday that I am approved,,, I am so excited. I am in Albany NY and my surgery date is January 4th, 2010... What a great way to start the new year. If anyone would like to connect let me know. Tlmdays @aol.com

This is my first post also. I started the process in August as well. I was denied by my insurance and then reversed. My surgery is scheduled for this coming Monday, December 28th. I am happy and nervous at the same time.

I am doing ok. Still taking Gas X and on Clear Liquids, doing a lot of walking. I did not sleep too good last nite but read that a lot of other bandsters had the same problem. I have been cat napping today. Overall the experience was not bad. Feel free to ask me any other questions.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
