I was scheduled to leave yesterday morning, however i had a bad reaction to one of the pain meds, n my blood pressure went up. They quickly took care of it n my pressure went back to normal. By late evening i was stable enough so they sent me home.

This morning I'm in very little pain. Walking around, doing light house work, feeling great. Have to keep reminding myself to drink fluids (cuz i don't get the hunger pain or thirsty). I have to set alarm on phone for every few hours as a reminder. Today i feel good.

Hartford Hospital staff were great. Doctor was awesome. Couldn't of asked for a better team of health care professionals.

      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?
