Recommended Posts

On Jan 27 2015, I had my surgery, I am doing good. I have lost 6 lbs. I have about 3cc in it and I really think I need a fill now. Everytime I eat I always want to eat more. I see the Dr. tomorrow so we will see.

I went to my appt and I gained 5 lbs. Very disappointed in myself, but the dr said that sometimes this happens and dont worry. I have an appt in 2 weeks for maybe the xray and a fill.

      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?
