With the revision I know it is a one night stay. My question is, who (if anyone) stayed the night with you? Did someone just drop you off and come back and pick you up the next day? We live approx 1.5 hours away from the hospital and I am just wondering what others, who have had to travel have done. Thanks

I haven't had mine yet but I will be flying out alone. Family will take me to the airport/pick me up.

It was only a thirty minute drive to the hospital. My sister took me and stayed for a few hours after surgery. I told her that I was fine so went home. Her husband picked up the following morning.

No one stayed with me. Mother in law dropped me off. Husband came and visited for an hour first night. Then he came late the next afternoon and picked me up.

No one stayed with me. Hubby and mom stayed during the surgery. Mom had to go get kiddo from school and brought him up to say hello that night. They all left and mom picked me up the next day. She didn't even have to get out of the car!

      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?
