Anyone else go through Lapband jitters? I am scheduled to have mine "installed" on April 9th. I've stocked up on Protein shakes, clear broths, and sugar free juices.

I live 2 miles from the hospital, and it's not until 4pm. So I'm walking to my surgery, my husband will pick me up...

but lately, the past few days I have had nervous tummy! Is this normal? I am ready to go... but I've got the jitters!

Yes, I think it is normal - it is a major life change but totally worth it. I think just having the band is such a motivator to lose weight because of what you go through to get it, including those jitters. Wishing you the best of luck!

      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.
