I went for my first consultation appointment today. I was SO nervous, but it was all for nothing. I went in, and spoke to the doctor- Then I talked to the nutritionist about what to eat after the surgery. She set up my surgery date, which is next Friday (May 14)-

I am SO excited!!! And a little nervous! It's all paid for now, and set up. All that's left to do is my pre-op diet, and pre-admission testing. The lady at the Doctor's office is supposed to call tomorrow with my PAT time. It's supposed to be the morning of the surgery I think-

Woooo Hoooo!:thumbup:

5 more days for you! That's awesome! :thumbup: They called this morning, and my testing is Wednesday at 11- I'm kind-of freaking out, because it is at a hospital I have never been to. My anxiety really gets the best of me when I have to go somewhere new, by myself. I have tried to find someone to go with me, but everyone is working.

I know I can do it- I just have to keep reminding myself of that fact!

      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.
