Oh and if you are going to be in the car, I would make sure the hospital is going to give you a binder...it really does help with any bumps!!! (it helped me a lot and I still wear it in the car, but I am only 4 days post op!!)

Premeir Protein. Find it at costco or on Amazon.< /p>

I made my own broth. sugar free Jello and pudding. Sugar free popcicles, I also got sugar free fudge bars. Some sugar free drink packets or crystal lite.

Bring a pillow for your ride. I did for my 50 minute ride but didnt really need it. The hospital gave me small barf bags and a anti nausea shot for the ride home.

I can barely choke down a Protein shake, so I manage one a day and got the rest of my Protein in with milk. The sf ice pops are good and I asked my nurse for a supply of the broth packets to bring home.

Def have meds on hand, even if not needed. Better tone safe, than sorry!

Best of luck!

      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?
