I have done the seminar, met with my Doctor who will be doing surgery, I have 4month wait with my insurance but already have 2months done because of my primary doctor, waiting to here if anything from my psychologist will work to knock some more time off if not month 3 appointment is on December 12, 2013 and looks like surgery will be at the end of January or February 2014. I'm just so excited and so ready to have this done, I also already met with the NUT and psych dr in Tampa Fl. So just waiting for surgery date...

Congratulations -- sounds like things are moving right along! I started in June and was banded in November. So happy! While I was waiting I kicked the exercise up and I'm glad I did that. Made me healthier for surgery and also able to step right into increased activity after banding. I'm pretty sure exercise is a key to success but I had trouble getting motivated pre-band. It has given me willpower. Keep us posted on your progress!

      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?
