Recommended Posts

Also try some GasX chewables. You don't have to swallow them and it's worth a try. They are cherry creme flavor. Good luck!

Yes the strips work good and fast too, but I am not into the minty flavor of those!

I was sleeved on Monday too and my biggest issue is acid reflux. I cannot sleep with one pillow and it is waking me up all night. Dr Garcia gave me plenty of meds and they are working but the acid is making me miserable. I'm going to try to go out today.

Yes finally the gas has subsided. I have been walking and walking and walking. I am still tender but i feel alot better. Being that I am diabetic I get nervous when I do not eat, but my sugar has been normal. So the Protein Shakes was replaced with the gluceria shakes and I am surprised I am able to tolerate it. But it helps keeps your blood sugar level. Although I do feel week if I walk a long periods of time, I am starting to like my sleeve.

      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?
