Kentucky Sleevers -- Georgetown Bariatrics



Recommended Posts

In a matter of hours I will finally be joining the ranks of the Sleevers and taking my seat on the losers bench.

It has been a long journey to get this far, but in the process I have learned a lot, and am at peace with my decision. Two years ago I had pretty much lost hope and couldn't imagine being able to do something as simple as kicking the Diet Coke habit.

I wanted to thank everyone on this board to helping me to get this far. I am eager to come back at the beginning of my new life.

Wish me luck.

Dr. Weiss. He seems to be excellent. I hope he is getting a good night's sleep tonight.

Hoping your feeling OK.

I have had a great recovery. I couldn't be happier. My major challenge is getting in my fluids. That has been the biggest challenge so far.

Today was the first day I have done a significant amount of exercise. We finally opened the pool and I was able to swim for the first time since surgery,

It's going to be a great summer.

      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?
