I don't live in kc anymore, but I'm going trough St. Luke's for surgery. Just looking to expand my support group a little more.

I'm from SW Missouri. I haven't chosen a dr yet; not going to be sleeved until December or January. Do you have a surgery date yet?

Not yet. My last class is next week (my dr requires 4 or 7 even if insurance requires 3 or 6). And then hopefully it'll be quick from there. Where in sw mo?

      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.
