Recommended Posts

She called this afternoon and gave me a date. February 18th. I failed the first 4 ekg's they gave me today. my heart rate was 97 we got it down to 94 and doc signed it so i am all set for my pre-opp class friday, just need to lose the rest of the weight and pull together the funds for the silastic ring by friday. I am thankful for the date. I am thankful for how fast this has all gone. I can't wait to have it done, iwant to start losing faster so i can reduce this pain....february 18 seems so far away...but i know i was very blessed to get a date so soon....i guess i can join the february surgery thread now...has one been started yet? i am also very thankful to all of you who offer encouragement and support.

So glad you got a date. It sounds like a long time away, but it will move faster than you think. But I will be honest the five weeks since surgery went a lot faster then the five before. Isn't it just amazing how things seem to us. Time is Time, but it can seem to go so slow and at other times way too fast. Wishing you the best as you go through the rest of your appointments and classes getting ready for surgery.

      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.
