** Runs in doing my happy dance**

My paperwork was submitted June 4th. I was approved on the 5th and I got my surgery date today, JUNE 26TH. I was picking up my daughter when they called to confirm my surgery date. I screamed so loud that everyone in the parking lot stopped to stare but today was one of the rare days I didn't mind being the center of attention.

I'm so excited, the only thing that gave me pause was the fact that I was asked if I would be interested in having the procedure done with robotic assistance using the Da Vinci Robotic system. I love technology and I trust my surgeon so I think I'm going to let him use the robot.

I'm scheduled for 6/26 too! I had a lap band since January 2005, but it slipped suddenly and I Had emergency surgery to have it removed (while on vacation no less) on April 7. In the two months, I've gained 25 pounds. Decided to have the sleeve before I gain ALL of the weight back. I went from a 4 to a 10 in two months. I miss my band. Praying this works as well, If not better.

      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?
