Im scheduled for may 17th with Dr. Ponce. Please post how everything went. I heard they dont give you as strong pain meds as they do here in the states. Im curious if what they give and if it is truly not as strong. You will do well. Cant wait to here back from you!

I went to Ponce and I had zero pain except for gas pains for the first 12 hours out of surgery. I didn't even take my pain meds after I left the hospital. :) Feel free to private message me for any more info!

      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?
