My surgery is Mar. 18th, too! I am excited one minute, and kind of nervous the next. I am doing OK on the pre-op diet. My mom is going up to Phoenix with me. We live about three hours away. my husband will stay home. He has cancer, so the trip might be too much for him. i am having an open revision from an old stomach stapling to gastric bypass. I've had other abdominal surgeries, so I have an idea of what to expect. I don't know if that makes me more, or less nervous! @@marissa75 @@cnjashton @@timeforme2015 I hope you will update us on your progress!

      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?
