So my endoscopy was yesterday. Because my surgery is Tuesday' date=' everyone working my endoscopy will be at my surgery so that was good. The Anesthesiologist was Dr. Addox (sp). He's kind quirky but nice. My I.V. was basically painless (yes, there was a needle prick), i am very bruised at the site, but it doesn't hurt. I have an extremely sore throat (i still have tonsils so any 'impact' irritates them). I was pretty wonky afterwards which gives me hope that after my surgery i won't notice any pain at first ;-p All the nurses are very nice. Heidi is/was my main nurse. I'm getting very nervous about the surgery and the aftermath, but i keep telling myself it's all only temporary....[/quote']

Thanks for sharing! I'm feeling antsy since I can't really do any more about my surgery until June, so I'm spending time digging for info and trying to help others here when I can to keep my head in the game and my eye on the prize.

Today, however, I have been addicted to you tube videos about sleeves. Oy.

      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.
