of fluids do you think a sleeve can hold at one time? I ask because I have a mandatory agility test for my fire department tonight and I'm preparing by hydrating. I know that I'll be hot and sweating like crazy all night so I wanted to get as hydrated as possible. I didn't know if 16oz in one shot would be too much.

Water passes through the stomach & past the pyloric valve almost instantly.

I'm 7months post op & can drink 24oz in about a minute. If ou are under 6 weeks post-op take it easy though as tge staple line isn't fully healed yet.

      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?
