I was sleeved last week and it was a breeze. From the time I started this process until now seemed to really fly by. I didn't even have time to be nervous. Just relax. Get your gas-x strips ready!

I'm scheduled for April 22 as well and I'm not nervous about the surgery so much as I am about this two week liquid diet I started today. Any advice or tips on how to survive this. Did u start your liquid diet?

      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?
