You're about to have a nice nap. Here's hoping everything will go exactly to plan (I'm sure they will take good care of you). All the good stuff about having the excess weight off is now coming your way. I've decided to start planning my wardrobe to take my mind off the surgery.

I'm on the loser bench guys????. The nurse said I got out of surgery around 2:30 and was in and out of sleep all afternoon. I have absolutely no pain right now but earlier there was a lot of pressure in my chest. They did ECG just to make sure it was just gas which it was and gave me medication. I thank God and you guys for all the support you have been giving. Your words of advise and well wishes means so much to me. Here's to our healthier longer lives.

      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?
