It took me like 10 days, but then everything just returned to normal. I think just let nature run its course.

Be careful. Are you getting any Protein Shakes or sources of Protein yet? If you are, you need to poop. The first few weeks post op, you will be getting almost no Fiber but getting Protein through shakes and drinks.

When protein goes in, poop must come out. Constipation is real and it hurts. It was by far and away the most challenging and painful part of the process. You need to get some help before you become impacted.

Not trying to scare you but don't let it happen to you.

      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?
