Sorry for the short post. I'm so exhausted and want to cough like no tomorrow but it hurts my tummy. Finally made it to the losers bench. Yay! Now back to sleep I go.

Well done, I had mine on 3rd April and have to tell you that in a couple of days time you will feel like a new person. At the moment I bet you feel like you have been steam rollered and that you can't possibly recover. Me too for the first couple of days but now I'm feeling fine and just a little tired in the afternoons. Be good to yourself, walk and sip that liquid.< /p>

Right on CONGRATS!!! Welcome to the losers bench!

Don't skimp on the breathing treatments for that cough. It's really important. All the best and heal quickly!

Thank you everyone yesterday was tough. I wanted to cry. I remember going into the operating room and they put the mask on me and I just kep yelling I can't breathe!!! Then promptly spit up something then next thing I know im in the recovery bay yelling help me lol. Crazy. Got some sleep, walked, got a few coughs and burps out. My dad felt it was a good idea to bring chili cheese frites to my room to eat.... My mom gave him the ultimate death glare lol so he ate in the mini living room. Feeling better today doesn't hurt as much to get up and use the restroom like it did yesterday. I loathe the breathing treatments but it's really important I do it. I'll keep everyone posted, back to bed I go!

      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.
