Banded last Monday. Thursday nite and yesterday, vomiting uncontrollably. I want to thank everybody for their support on here and advice. I did call doc. yesterday, went to office, checked me out, ex-ray etc. and nurse reduced the fill. Said everything in place, looked great..I was under impression nonthing in there. but guess there was. I thought I was dying. She said I would be fine, I sure had my doubts. sent me home. I took Phlegrin? (probably mis-spelling for sure. ) went to bed, got up this morning and I feel great. Loaded dishwasher, showered, and had 1/2 cup Jello and it stayed down. Yahoo!!! Have never been so ill.... but today is a new day and I'm on track to success. Nothing to hold me back now. However, I was not aware or told of details of post op. If I had known, I would've called doc way sooner than i did. But, I just did not know. Thanks again everybody. You are super support on here. Hope I can help others as well. You will be seeing alot less of me.:(:w00t::):thumbup:

Rule #1......

If there's any problems between your neck and your knees, call your doctor.

Sounds like you're on the road to recovery and that's great. You should start feeling better every day and in about a week you'll be back to your NEW self. Keep up the good work and remember that you always have people here that have been through it too.

      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?
