I have about 7 days till my final appointment. I will finally find out when I can get my wls. I am starting to feel nervous. At first I was just ready to start my journey.. Now I will admit I'm scared outta my mind. I've never spend the night in the hospital. But at the same time I'm super excited. I have anxiety which has been pretty well managed but lately it's been at an all time high. Its been hard for me to fall asleep at night. I'm sure it will be late nights like this till its over with. What are some things you all have done to keep calm?

      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?
