Leaving tonight to get banded:)



Recommended Posts

Hello all, Not been posting much but been reading every day. I am headed to Dr. Kuri in Mexico to get banded...flight leaves 1am tonight. I am very very nervous but so ready, my decision is made and I am at peace with it. I will post everything when it's all over...Tuesday is surgery date, and will be in hospital Mon through Wed. I have this really weird fear that while under anestheisia I will be able to feel everything pain wise but I won't be able to move or wake up. I know it's totally irrational...but I think that is what I am dreading the most-actually going under. Anyways, I'll let you guys know how it all goes :)

      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.
