I Got My Date - October 8th!!



Recommended Posts

Well, the liquids have started, yuck! My surgery date is October 8th, so liquid diet for two weeks. I'm on day 4 and really struggling. I've had Migraines, nausea, chest pains, and reflux. I've got GERD disease and it really hates all the Protein Shakes and liquids. I've double my acid medicine and it still hasn't stopped it, but I'm gonna make it, this has been my dream for about 3 years now. Nothing is gonna stop me from making my dreams come true!! Anyone else have the same date as me??:001_tt2:

<wave> I have the same date as you! I'm going to Dr Aceves in Mexico and I started today on my low carb diet. I keep thinking of reasons to put it off but it's nearly 4pm and I'm still going. Who's your surgeon?

      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?
