Good luck during and after your surgery. I remember having very similar thoughts as you. Weeks before the surgery I was totally cool with "the decision", but days before they surgery, I started to get more and more excited. Like I was a kid going to disneyland for the first time or day before Christmas. I think it was my body's and mind's coping mechanism. All I can say is that the whole experience was totally worth it.

Had surgery, have some gas pains. This was tougher than I thought it was going to be. But now feeling better after getting some Water and broth.< /p>

What really help: biotene for dry mouth, walking and to pee put my tounge on top of roof of mouth. Someone mentioned that on the forums here.

Thanks all for the replies.

      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.
