Be sure you are hydrated. Dehydration makes you feel weak, tired, and just crappy overall.

So sorry to hear you are struggling. I think it somehow helps to hear other people's struggles, to let you know that you are "normal" , you are not alone, and that there really is hope. I was sleeved on February 24. Had a really rough time with pain and recovery. Somehow at day 7 it was like the fog lifted, the Protein tasted a little less like ***t, and the pain was really not bad. You will get better. Hang on, and hang in. Hugs!

I wanted to shoot myself until about 2 weeks out, then it got much better. One month out was worlds better. It's going on 6 months now and I am so happy I did this. It gets better every day; don't worry!

      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?
