Hey guys! I'm getting sleeved tomorrow at 9 am. Prayers are highly appreciated! I'm feeling very nervous and I'm scared I won't wake up. Deep inside I know God has a plan for me :)

I am sure you will be fine. The last thing I remember was they were hooking me up and one of the guys in the OR started cracking jokes with me. Relax, take a nap and then sip sip sip and walk when you wake up. Good luck and I will be sending prayers and warm happy thoughts your way

Oh... I know the feeling!! Scared and anxious. I had mine also Jan 8!! Anesthesia is great. You will do fine. Just ask for pain meds!! They help so much and expect gas pain and tenderness!! Morphine works on it well!! I threw up the first night and it was not that bad.. they have medicine for that!! It will be over before ya know it, remember to take walks and pass gas.. small frequent sips! Good Luck and you will be soooo glad you did it!!

      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?
