My surgery is Monday! can't wait to be banded



Recommended Posts

Thanks everyone for the replys! I'm very anxious right now, but i know its just my nerves and i'll be fine. my surgery is outpatient, but they may keep me overnight if the doc thinks its necessary. i am a chapstick addict so i will have one with me, packing my bag right now. My surgery is not until noon tomorrow, so I will have all morning to make myself crazy! lol

Good Luck to everyone who is having surgery tomorrow! lets keep eachother posted!:)

Good luck Trish77. I just finished packing and I did remember the chap stick. I will be overnight so I packed more than I need, but you never want to be short something you want/need. I am so excited, nerves have not kicked in yet. Just so happy to be starting the banded journey!!

      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.
