I am having weird dreams where I am eating and all of a sudden it hits me that I'm not suppose to so I spit it all out. I was wondering if anyone else is having dreams like these or any different ones since their surgery?

I had those dreams right after surgery- only I didn't spit it out. I did wake up with my heart pounding, though, thanking God it was just a dream!

I just had one of those dreams (just woke up from a nap) and my surgery is a week from today. I am not sure if it's because I've been on the pre-op diet faithfully for a week and I'm subconsciously missing food or if it's pre-surgery anxiety. I didn't spit the food out in my dream and, in fact, I kept eating more. The part of my brain that was trying to wake up was horrified, but I was incredibly calm about it in my dream (although I did have a thought that I had basically undone a lot of hard work). Now that I am awake, I would classify this as a nightmare!

I had a dream like that a couple of days after surgery. I dreamt that I had eaten a huge meal and lots of soda. I woke up in a panic thinking I had really eaten all that....and hurt myself in the process. I was still on the liquid pain medicine so I was having all kinds of long, weird dreams.

      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?
