My Band Initiation is Now Complete



Recommended Posts

I went to a family dining style lunch with 9 senior church members yesterday. :hungry: If you ever go to Shatley Springs, it's awesome! They bring out plates and bowls of chicken, ham, homemade bisquits, mashed potatoes, gravy, cole slaw, green Beans, cabbage, corn, pinto Beans, fried apples and keep them filled; after which there's six kinds of fruit cobbler with a scoop of icecream. Once you eat your fill, they'll box up any food left on the table to take home with you!

Between the ham & chicken, I thought a chicken breast would be the lesser of evils! I pealed off the coating and skin, and took a few bites of chicken. I thought I was eating slow and chewing well, but I also found the chicken quite dry! :cry The chicken got hung. I waited and waited, and the slime kept building. It quickly became apparent it wasn't going to go down! I excused myself to the powder room. Needless to say, I experienced my first PB! :puke:It wasn't my idea of a good time, but it wasn't the worst experience of my life either. My initation into bandland is now complete!

      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?
