I will be leaving my house in a little less than 4 hours, to head to the hospital for my sleeve. No nerves whatsoever. I am scheduled for 8:15 and I am ready!

Best wishes to all my sleeve twins heading in today!

I've been done for several hours. Woke up with minor pain and seriously dry mouth. Other than that, I am great.

I hope everyone else is just as good, if not better.

Thanks everyone! I passed my swallow and leak test and I am tolerating Water and juice well, so I get dinner. Yay me! I am imagining broth and Jello. Still only minimal pain. I have a drain, but it will be removed before discharge tomorrow. So glad it's done!

Congrats again to everyone else!

      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?
