Hi,

My name is Stephie Grob Plante and I'm a reporter with Man Repeller — a digital lifestyle magazine — covering a story on bariatric surgeries. I'm looking to get in touch with people who have had one of the surgeries, people who are considering one of the surgeries, and people who are scheduled to have one of the surgeries. If you're interested in participating in this story, I'd love to connect with you and interview you via phone.
Thanks so much, and please let me know if you have any questions!
Stephie

      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?
