Pre Op consultation tomorrow and surgery is for May 27th



Recommended Posts

I'm both excited and nervous. Tomorrow I'll be missing my youngest daughters last track meet of the year and my 8th graders graduation on the 27th. That sucks. So I'll be at the hospital alone, since my wife will be attending both of these events. Anyone go through it alone before?

I too will be banded on the 27th. I'll be experiencing the alone phase, my daughter will not be attending on my surgery date. I go in today for pre-op cosultation. I dont know if someone needs to be there with me or not. No one is available, I dont have friends that close. So I'll go it alone, just me and the LORD.:biggrin:

Sorry to hear that, where do you live i'd go with you? but u know what i have to probably go alone too tomorrow. Ive been going to everything alone, so tomorrow unless my mother wants to go i'll go alone again. No big deal if i can do it a person who suffers from anxiety you can do it too! God Bless and Good Luck with Everything! I just hope i dont go through all of this to find oh, sorry u werent approved. Thats my only fear.

I'm really not even sure how I'm getting to the hospital...it is almost 3 hours away. Hopefully I can get a transport from the hospital here and my wife will pick me up the next day. I'm already planning on staying the night at the hospital.. good luck to you childgod...I'll be thinking of you while I"m in my hospital room.

      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.
