Hi everyone! I'm new! Well not really, I've been here quite a while reading about all the ins and outs...watching others journeys. This is my first post! What a blessing this forum is! I've read so many inspiring and helpful posts from people who know exactly how I feel! I appreciate any responses and want to say congratulations and good luck to you all!! I have been through many different emotions before surgery as the rest of you have and have now gotten to the point where I just can't wait to get this done! I am so ready to start my new life!!! I have been through all of my appts with the specialists, dietitian, nutrionalist, psychologist, and 3 month of doctors visits. I am now just waiting for my patient advocate to call me with a date. I am so excited and look forward to sharing this journey with all of you!

      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?
