There is no way we can answer that. You will definitely have to ask your doctor and let him decide.

Just remember, if he does postpone the surgery, it's a good thing. It's not worth risking serious complications or your health for an elective surgery.

Best wishes.

Your stomach bugs must be because to the some bad items or agent in you shake. So it is always advised to maintain a very healthy and nutritional diet plan after the surgery that will help you gain a quick weight loss without any side effects. I was in the same situation few months before then Lap Band Surgery Book helped me a lot more information about the prevention, precautions, diet plans etc of the surgery. You will get more information about the software from : http://www.lapbandsolutionbook.com/lap-band-meal-planner-book.php

      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.
