Yesterday was a great day! No gas, no pain, felt really good, almost normal. I did a little pruning in my yard and took a walk. My daughter came by at one to take me to my follow-up visit in Wareham. I was still under a no-driving restriction so she drove but we took my car. It was a harrowing 45min drive in which I was constantly using the invisible passenger side brake and telling her to slow down (it's against all the laws of nature for a parent to be a passenger with their child driving!). My Heather has always had trouble with left and right so you can imagine the panic when I told her to go to the left and she went to the right, and visa versa! We made it in one piece and the appointment went quickly. I was cleared to drive!!!!!!! Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!!!! So I said "Heather give me my keys, I'M DRIVING HOME! The ride home was MUCH more relaxing. :-) :-) :-)

Too funny! I have a daughter that drives like she's a NASCAR driver. She has never had a ticket, and that surprises the heck out of me! Glad you are feeling so good! Best wishes!

A mom is a mom is a mom. No matter how old your child is they are always a child to you. Heather is 27yrs in three weeks. I hope my girls have children so I can sit back and watch them go through everything I did. :-)

      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?
