First Meeting With Surgeon On Tuesday



Recommended Posts

So I'm having my first appointment with the surgeon on Tuesday November 12 and I am so excited. I met her at the seminar and she was just beautiful and was so understanding and very knowledgable on explaining how everything went, she made sure we were well informed! I'm just ecstatic and getting the process going and seeing what are my options and things I must do until the big day!!!!! ????????????

Thanks so much girl! My friends baby name is Armani so cute right... How has your process been? I'm looking for new friends on here, I feel like I can't rely on my family and friends for support... They just don't care!

I love the name Armani that's why I named my son like that. My process so far fast and smooth. Hopefully I can say the same after surgery. Ooh we can be RNY buddies

That's great everything is going smoothly on your end! Today I met with dr. choi my surgeon and she recommends I get Rny over any other procedure due to my acid reflux and risk of diabetes, I'm going to have to get a sleep study for my sleep apnea, a endoscopy to see if I have any ulcers and all the other basic appointments needed! How soon is your surgery? Looks like I have a few more months to go

      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?
