I am new here (been lurking for months, but this is my 1st post). I jsut had to reply to this post though.

I had my surgery Sept 1, 2009, so I am almost 7 months out. I have not had ANY fills to this point and am down 105 lbs to date. I have PLENTY of restriction, trust me. I had some drama about 4 months post op and had to have my port removed (due to an absess around the part area), so I don't even have a way to have a fill. My dr says he has had a couple of patients that have gone 6+ months before their 1st fill, but they had not lost as much as me. So we are in no hurry to put the port back in.

Just had to put my 2 cents in.

Went for a fill four days ago started with 3.7 and have total of 5cc today. I am way to tight I have to eat Soup for Breakfast lunch and supper. I have tried to eat other things like pringles chips they go down good i have had a very thin slice cheese.I tried spaggetti with meat sauce and it kept slimming up and felt the tight feeling in my chest. So then I just stuck with potato soup which goes down just fine. I sure hope it losens up soon. How long do you guys have to wait till you can eat solids after a good fill??

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
