Surgery date Sept. 30th



Recommended Posts

I am so excited, I get to have my surgery on Sept. 30th. This is day seven of my liquid diet and it is hard but I know it will be with it in the end. My pre-surgery journey has gone so fast it almost doesn't seem real. From the 1st time I saw the doctor to surgery will be 62 days. Anyone else Sept. 30th?

I have to do nothing but Clear liquids on Sunday and Monday, and of course no liquids or food Tuesday.

I am told that every surgeon is different when it comes to prep before surgery.

I have to do a liquid diet for almost 2 was before surgery. Which consists of sugar free carnation instant Breakfast and sugar free Popsicles and of course lots of Water. The day before surgery I get broth. The good news is that since I started the liquid diet I've lost 13 lbs.

Great! I'm looking forward to post surgery. My nut and surgeon said that I should lose weight quickly and have little to no sagging skin. First time I'm glad to be tall.

Mine is 9/29. My surgeon required a 3 day post-op diet but I pretty much didn't want to eat anyway. (Big shocker there for me! (-;) I just tried to make sure I got all the Protein in. Anyway, good luck to you guys! I'm so excited to have made this decision and have it FINALLY here!

      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?
