Totally unprepared for a round of sneezing that occurred this evening. No pillow near to hold against me.

Three times in a row followed by me yelling a long drawn out "mother f'er".

The experience didn't kill me, I guess it made me stronger.

Regardless, it was immediately follow up on by taking 1/2 a pain pill and a lot of grumbling. Still grumbling.

Oh my gosh, a couple of hours after my surgery, I had the damn hiccups FOUR times!!!!! Each round was 5 minutes. Jesus I wanted to die!!!! Very painful. But they were gone the next day. Maybe it was my body adjusting, I don't know! All I know is that I was in PAIN!! ????????????????

I get a hic-cup or two generally after eating. I read about it and thank goodness they don't last. If that's the ONLY issue I have, I will take it. So far it has been a smooth ride....I would like to lose more but I will take a 1-2 lb loss every week :D

After surgery my seasonal allergies went crazy (they were fine before) and I went on a sneezing tangent. They gave me some kind of allergy medicine thru my iv but it didn't work so they let me take my Claritin. I have been fine since then, but boy did that hurt!

I had a tickle in my throat for about 3 days. That was tough.

      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?
