Hey Barb!

I am a December sleever as well. 12/5/12 for me I'm so very excited it is finally here! :D

You should join the December 2012 forum that way all of us that had the surgery at the same time can keep in touch.

Good luck!

Hi fellow December sleevers!! I am having VSG with Dr. Jesus Ortiz in Tijuana Mexico on December 27th! Would have had it the 26th, but due to Christmas Day, couldn't re3ally ask the drivers to pick us up at the airport, lol. So the 27th it is! Good luck to all. I also live in North Carolina.

      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?
