Hi and welcome to the forum! I'm 12 days post op and feeling great! Down 17lbs so far, and pretty happy about that. Physically, it's been easier than I expected. Mentally, I wasn't prepared for the challenge. I miss eating, and chewing. I've been dreaming of it. I think as soon as I get to the mush stage, I'll be much better. Having support is the key. surround yourself with like minded people. This forum has been a big help also!

Welcome! I had my surgery Feb 9th, 2012 and have had no issues at all. Of course the first few days I was a bit sore but nothing I couldnt handle. I was up and about at the hospital walking around an hour after getting back from surgery,it helped since it hurt my back to lay in the bed too long ( hospital beds arent known to be too comfy!) Best of luck to you.

      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?
