Hey Julie - sorry to hear you've been having some issues with the band. At one point, I was experiencing the have a few bites then not be able to have anymore but still hungry thing. I started drinking a cup of hot tea right before eating. Seems it helps to loosen the band up .. or maybe its in my head lol. Either way, it helped for me.

What kind of foods are you eating? What level of fill are you at and what size band?

      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?
