It sounds to me like you still need more fill, but I would stop taking large pills before that. Switch to chewable like adult Centrum chewables (walmart).

Ask your Doc to fill you under Fluoroscope, and take you to your Fill LINE, since it's not working yet.

That way you will be in the Green Zone, and the rest is up to you......

How do I get the tracker on the bottom like you have?

Just click on someones ticker and it will take you to the site. Fill in the info, then copy, and paste the httml paragraph.

In your profile, look for ABOUT ME, on the middle of the top click on that, then paste it in there.

      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?
