I can't even look on my November surgeries thread. And I am having my surgery Monday morning as well as my Husband. The time I need the support and advice of others on the forum they change it up and better yet shut it down for over a day!

It appears no one can get past certain pages...sucks: most of the forums I read have gone on forever. Since you're at such a tender time I'd say start a new November thread and hopefully your other novemberers will find ya! Just make sure you post it under the right surgery, no telling what you'd hear if you stumble into the wrong one :).

And good luck!!! I was crazy the last couple days before mine...I was nesting trying to get everything done and ready just like when I had my son. :D

I agree with soccermomma... Start a new November thread. In the mean time, feel free to post questions/concerns on this thread and those of us who are a little further along are more than willing to be of any support we can! :) <3

It appears of you go to the web site instead of using the app things are working some better. I do see the November thread there but doesn't look like anyone is using it....at least I can sort of find stuff by going to the web site :) it'll get better! Kinda feel like I've lost my friends though, how goofy.

I had to guess but if you guys are looking for the "November surgeries?" thread you can find it here - http://www.bariatricpal.com/topic/280809-november-surgeries/page-21?hl=%2Bnovember#entry3235890 . If you're looking for another thread, if you do a search on the exact title you should be able to find it. If not, post here or send me a PM and I'd be glad to try to help you out.

I just posted the following on another thread that should help you feel more at home again.

Guys this may help you narrow things down a bit. After you've logged on, click on "New Content" in the ribbon near the top of the page. On the right side of the screen you'll see "New content" filters followed by three main options, "By category", "By time period", and "Other". The options in the first two are pretty self-explanatory. To narrow the content you see to RnY threads, click "Filter by forum" under the "Other" option. Scroll down (quite a ways) until you see "Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums". Below that you will see all of the bypass surgery forums - you can select one, many or all of them by holding down the "Ctrl" key on your keyboard while clicking your choices. Immediately below the options, you can filter further by Year or even one or more months of the year.

Once you've made your selection, then just click "Save". Every time you come to the site and click "New Content", you'll see only RnY threads based on your filter options. It sounds much more complicated than it is when you're looking at it and you only have to do it once.

Everyone (including myself) hates changes but once you get the filters configured the way you want them, you'll feel right at home!!

On the iPad app, try clicking on the second to last page, then the last page. It's the way I've been able to see the most current posts.

      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?
