I am from Maryland, and will be sleeved on September 9th. But what I would recommend is that you start doing is reading as much as you can about the sleeve so you can have a good understanding of what your post sleeve life will be. This site has some great information and wonderful people with lots of knowledge that they don't mind sharing with you. Also, most insurances may require you to take a few seminars, those are helpful also. Good luck to you :)

I am in Bel Air MD, north or Baltimore. I had my sleeve done on July 16th. wow, that is only 11 days ago! I haven't had any issues, other than I am starving from the post-op diet. I just am not getting that ubber full feeling that others talk about after eating 1/4 cup of cottage chees or yogurt. I hope it gets better when I put some solid food in there.

      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?
