Any surgery pals this week?



Recommended Posts

I'm going in April 27th for surgery and was curious if anyone going in this week would like to become surgery pals to keep in touch and check in with one another post op to see how everyone is doing. I'm in Michigan, 30 year old female, 5'6" and my pre-op weight before pre-op diet started was 347. Figured the stats might help to compare experiences to some degree.

Today was really a turning point for me. I started feeling like a person again! I folded laundry, I did some light housework, with minimal pain medication. Yesterday, I didn't know how I was going to make it.. But today really gave me hope for the next few weeks! [emoji846]

      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?
