I was banded on 5/12 and seem to be flushed in the face and chest. Even warm to the touch. No fever. Has anyone else had this before? My guess is the gas, giving it a little longer before I call the doc since no fever. Almost like a sun burn look to it and hot flash feel to it.

Thanks for your in put.

Please check your blood pressure. If it is elivated call you PCP right away if this has lasted over several hours.

That isn't normal. I would call you dr. It could be a reaction to a medication.

Thank you all. I did call the doc, looks like an allergic reaction. Had to take something for it I just woke up. I'm not as red and not as hot to the touch. But extremely tired so back to bed for me after some more fluids and a few goes at the lung Thingy. Still no temp and bp is normal. Hopefully it will work through me fast what ever it is.

Thanks again to all.

      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?
