Hi Cutiepie,

I was not eating more than 30 to 100 calories a day and not drinking more than 10oz of fluids. I felt like a zombie everyday and I could not function ( return to normal activities) and I slept a lot. Yes, I could hold food down but I could not force myself to eat. When I would smell food I just got nauseated. Then my urine turned brown - which was a sign of dehydration. I didn't know about the potassium issue but I got to the hospital just in time. My hands turned numb and I couldn't feel anything. I got over 10 bags of iv in the hospital and I have a lot of work to do today healthy.

      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.
