Hi everybody. I just joined and love the wealth of information. I am 2 weeks per op and feeling very nervous. I currently weigh 340 pounds. I need this surgery to save my life.

Thank you so much!

You're welcome. You're gonna love these boards. So much info. Also check out youtube. I'll be checking in with you. You'll do fine. I started in June with my first Dr. Visit and there are days when I'm so scared and then I come here and read all the success stories and I get to communicate with some amazing people and then I feel so much better. Whatever you decide to do I wish you all the luck.

Thanks Dear. I actually got a call from the surgeon today looking to move up the surgery to the week. I was nervous at first but as usual I had folks cheering me on on this forum. So, I'm going for it. Wish me 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.
