Also, bring a small pillow, like a travelers neck pillow. I'm finding very helpful to hold against my stomach during the shuttle trips and the periodic coughing, which hurts! I almost left it in my friends car for when she picks me up but am so glad I brought it.

And pack some earplugs. I'm getting traffic noise in my room. If you don't already have some they are typically sold in the airport convenience shops. I never leave home without!

      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?
