I got my Date, Finally!!!!!!!!!!!



Recommended Posts

My date is Wednesday August 18 with Dr. Hart in Georgia. I cant believe it's almost here. It's weird, Now that Im done getting all the insurance stuff over with and finally getting a date I feel weird JUST WAITING. For the past 7 months it seems like my weeks have been filled with appointments, phone calls and emails. This whole wls surgery thing just seems to peaceful right now. Maybe it's the calm before the storm. Anyone else feel this way?thumbup1.gif

Nah, I feel the same way. I still have some logistical stuff left over, just in terms of paying for the surgery, but mostly, I just have to wait at this point. It's weird, since I've already researched everything, so I'm just sitting on my hands.

First off congrats on your surgery date. I know what you mean. From the time of my first seminar to my surgery date it has been about 4 months. This included scheduling and going to appointments. Basically rearranging my life. It was kinda fun to me.

Now just waiting until my pre -op diet which starts on Aug. 3rd. I also have my EKG, chest X-ray, and lab work done on that day. My surgery is scheduled for Aug. 17th. I just want it to be over already. Actually can we fast forward 2 months. LOL.

Good luck to you and BlackBerryJuice.:001_tt2:

      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?
