Thanks guys for the well wishes. Got back home last night. Sometimes I still can't believe I did it and alone.

Today was filled with ups and down. Felt fine at time, then painful but could be gas just haven't learned to recognize the cause of the pains. Not sure if it gas, bloating, too much to drink, not enough to drink, etc. Really struggled with getting in the Protein today. Only did about 44gms, but will try again tomorrow. I think I have gas pains cause my tummy feels better if I put a little pressure on it with my arm. Did anyone else have that? Does the Protein supplements cause gas? I had unjury today and wondering if the protein added more gas.

Thanks again,

Ellie

Ellie, I am preop, but from what I've seen others say, Gas X works wonders! Congratulations and a speedy recovery to 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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
