Recommended Posts

Hi All,

I'm hoping that ill have surgery on 9th October, anybody else?? I am going alone so would love to meet up with others that are going at the same time. I'm ready to be part of the losers bench :-)

I'm going to have my US immigration interview on Thursday so hopefully I will be a citizen and have my passport by then. I have paid my deposit so I pray things work out!!

      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.
