Yes, I'm going with a surgeon from Pennsylvania Hospital and am still going through the rounds of pre-op tests.

That's great how much longer you have to go? I work at Pennsylvania hospital also. I'm sure you'll be in great hands.

I have another month of the pre-op diet left and a few of the diagnostic/screening tests left. We're shooting for a surgery date in June or July.

My mom worked as an RN at Pennsy, so I feel good about getting my operation done there. It's a really good hospital. Where are you getting yours done?

      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.
