Any Banders In Their 20s's????



Recommended Posts

I was just wondering if there are any banders or soon to be banders in their early to later 20s. Im not sure If Im the youngest bander on here ( im 22 ), but I think I may be one of the younger ones on here looking at everyones ages so far. Just wanting to meet and chat with of the younger banders if possible.

I'm 25, I was banded in July of '03. There's actually a few threads around for people in their 20's (and teens).

      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?
