Hi All!

I am 7 days post surgery. I have noticed a big difference in a lot of ways since my surgery. The one that doesn't fit in is the fact that I now have the nose of a bloodhound.

My sense of smell has become so strong. Has anyone else experienced this? Is this odd???

Thanks!

Xoxo

I actually noticed it at the beginning of my pre-op diet. I could (and still can) smell bread from 1/2 a mile! Same with sugar.

I also noticed during pre-op. Alot of people had skanky breath and BO. Everything smells so strong!

      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.
