I have never had issues with high blood pressure until the last few weeks. I was in the hospital (again) from 12/30 to 1/7 and my blood pressure was high. I have not checked since i was released but thinking i should. I also have not restarted my birth control but need to soon. I had a few headaches in the hospital but nothing since being released. Maybe that is good news??? My next follow up appointment is the 22nd and hopefully i will return to work on the 26th. BTW, my surgery was 11/12 and have experienced complications since then but am finally seeing light at the end of the tunnel.

      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?
