I almost feel back to normal. Yesterday we walked around a small "artsy" New England tow nearby and today I feel very very good. not much pain except being over and getting up from the couch I have not taken any pain med since the Friday (2nd day after surgery). I just realized I could have a cup of coffee (decaf) but haven't yet, funny it was the thing I missed most during pre-op! I can only hope things continue as smoothly as they have so far!

All the support through this forum is the BEST!

Happy Sunday!

      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.
