Banded Monday also. Recliner is only place I can sit or sleep. Much easier to get out of with less pain.

I didn't need one. I was able to sleep (flat on my back) in my bed. Recovery was actually very easy. Don't sweat it - it might not be nearly as bad as you expect. At least that is how I found it to be (but then again, I'm only one week out). Good luck!

My surgery was Tuesday. Still a little sore, but my doctor told my husband the surgery was longer because he had to fix a "huge hietal hernia" . So far the pain is not as bad today! So happy for all of you !

      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.
