I'm from Flint and had mine done at Mclaren. Had mine 7/17/12 and down 100 pounds. Tash0130 is Dr. Kia doing your surgery? If he is he's the best. I have had no complications. Very friendly and my family loved him.

Yes, he is! I absolutely LOVE his confidence, because of him I am not nervous. I had my endoscopy 2 weeks ago, and I met the surgical nurses. They're so sweet! Do you go to the3 support group?

Nurse Tab, I think you're beating yourself up over nothing.....you will get back on track!

      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.
