To be honest with you I did have regrets the day after surgery, because this was something new for me. But now I have no regrets because I see some changes with my body, I walked today & didn't get tired or my back didn't hurt and......I can reach body parts that I had trouble reaching, lol

Thanks for the honesty!!! i look forward to reaching neglected parts! hee hee

I was sleeved on June 4th as well. Haven't been in too much pain. Just frustrated that every sip I take hurts going down. I have tried cold, warm, small sips everything and nothing helps. I also have the gurgiling with each sip. How long before it stops? I'm not trying to complain, really. Just eager to feel sort of normal again.

How much was your start weight ? I had the gurgling because my dic left my esophagus tighter because he said I have more weight to lose. I have very little of it now but the hurting didn't happen to me. Hope you feel better.

      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?
