Going for my 1 week post-op appointment tomorrow! I can't believe it's been a week already!! Fingers crossed for a good wl amount- according to my scale I'm down 13 pounds- I'm curious to see how close his scale and mine are :-) also hoping I don't get in trouble- I moved myself to the puréed foods and soft foods stage earlier than his schedule- but I've done really well with it! We'll see what he says :-)

Is it weird I don't have a 1 week post op apt?

I go 3 week post op, then 3 months, 6 months, then yearly.

Just a word of caution... Dont move to quickly into stages. The pouch needs time to heal which is why the guidelines are there. Good luck on your appointment.

Yeah- I got in trouble for it :-/ have to stay on liquids for 1 more week then I can move to soft foods. Said if I come off liquids too soon I could pop a staple and that would be very bad :-( so I will obey drs orders this week :-)

      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?
