And I am soooo ready!! This is the first sx that I am excited to be having! I'm floating on cloud 9 today. Plus, we get to go pick up our new van we bought today after work. SO, I'll be all set for a new me! Then I'll go home and pack my overnight bag and I'll be all set for tomorrow. They told me to be there at 7:30, but I'm sure I'll have to wait a bit for my sx time. YEAHH!!!

Hi MadysMom -

Congrats on your surgery tomorrow! I too am having surgery in the morning. I have to be there at 7:45 for a 9:30 surgery time. I am so excited that I probably won't get much sleep tonight.

You take care and I hope that all goes well with both of our surgeries!

Congratulations to you both. I hope it goes well for you. I see my last required doctor Monday, so I am hoping to have my surgery the end of April or early May.

My surgery went really well. I rolled into the operating room at 10:15 and walked out of the hospital at 12:15. Pretty good I would say.

There are 5 incisions on my belly, but only 1 really hurts. It is the longest of the 4 so I am assuming that is the port? The other 4 really don't hurt, even if you touch them with a little pressure. MY left shoulder is getting sore and I have some burping-gurgling gas pains but the Gas-X and walking seem to make it subside for a bit.

Actually I feel much better than I had thought. I have had 2 c-sections and this is a breeze compared to that!

MadysMom - I really hope that your surgery went well. Please post and let us know how it is going today!

      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.
