I wanted to take a minute before I attempt a walk outside of the hotel to say thanks for all of the well wishes. This was a major decision to make and I am glad I have people who understand what i am going through. Add to that a supportive husband I am fortunate to have a good circle. I just want to encourage everyone to go for it and let you know that the bumps are going to be hard but it is worth it. I'm only a few days out but I've had every emotion in the world. Nevertheless I am happy and looking forward to the future.

I am happy about going to Dr Garcia and choosing Sandy at a lighter me. I had all of my questions answered and my process went smooth. The nurses were sweet and the dr was soft spoken. I left the hospital knowing I was in great hands.

Ok time to take a walk and get my broth. Later gators!

Did you need a special phone to call the USA while in Mexico? My mom will be going there soon.

      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?
