My name is Karen and I'm schedule for a gastric sleeve tomorrow..... I'm feeling very nervous but I guess is normal thanks

Good luck Karen. I'm 5 days post first 2 days I thought what have I done? Not pain just still a bit nervous. But kept looking at my photos my daughter took of me (about 40) all angles. In my bra and pants YUK! ????Not a pretty sight but such motivation. Don't forget to take your photos the worst you can and loads of them. Now every days easier and so exciting not going to weigh though until my follow up appointment with my lovely surgeon here in UK.

I kept remember everyone's advice on here walk walk sip sip so 10.00pm 5 hours after surgery I was marching the corridors. Have to say so far this has been easier than my knee arthropsocy 7 weeks ago.

I hope I have helped your nervousness ! GODSPEED ❤️

      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?
