Sigh! I'm very anxious! I meet again with the surgeon and do some blood work. I know it's normal to be anxious. I just haven't slept in days. I feel like I'm going to do fine but I'm still freaking out! Just needed to vent. This forum is keeping me together. Thanks everyone.

Good luck! My surgery is June-22. I'm nervous and excited at the same time. I know it's for the best and I'll lose this weight.

You will do incredible! I'm 6 days out and this has been SO much easier than I had anticipated. Make sure you ask for nausea meds. Those help a ton. Take advantage of the rest time at the hospital, but don't wait to long to get up and start moving around. The quicker you do, the better you're going to feel because that gas will be absorbed by your muscles. GOOD LUCK!

I had my surgery so far I can say I have had no issues. Very little pain yesterday, none today.

      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.
