bougie size for buffalo ny patients?

[fortheloveofme 7]

Hi. Hope everyone is enjoying the frigid weather ....I'm OVER it!

My question is mostly for Buffalo or Western NY sleevers or pre ops, but I wanted to open it to a more general forum in case others have advice about making sure we get this valuable info.

So my question is..... what size bougie did your Dr use? Did you discuss this before surgery? Did you have any say in the matter? I am pre op...just made it to my first info session but want to check out one more, but want to be fully informed walking in to this process - any advice with regard to buffalo surgeons and their willingness to make sure our questions are answered....I would be eternally grateful. Hardest part for me so far is choosing the right DR!!

I have been reading up on this and found a great resource so I will repost that link here... Thanks to whomever originally posted!!

OK, that is it. THINK SPRING
