Teresa4u I'm getting nervous too, I was reading people talk about the gas, shoulder, port pain afterwards. Everyone still says its the best decision they ever made for themselves. Being the fat girl all my life I'm just ready to go for it.

From the point of view of a long time fat guy, I hear ya... The small pains are worth the long time results...

I'm worried too, I'm excited because I know this will help me with long term success. I have had a few surgeries before and only had gas pain once, it was bad for me only one or two days that's it. Walking really helps like they say.

      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?
