Your nerves are getting the best of you honey, just remember why your started. My surgery is 2 weeks away and I myself find myself with a lot of anxiety. Breathing exercises helps me. Good luck!

My surgery is Wednesday and I feel exactly the same! I don't have any sort of pre-op diet either and I keep thinking they are going to get into surgery and my liver will be huge or something.... I totally trust my surgeon and I'm sure it will be fine. I'm just ready for it to be over!

My RNY surgery is tomorrow, as well. Its easy to let our minds get the better of us, isn't it? I too trust my surgeon and his team and keep reminding myself of all the benefits I'm working for. I keep chanting to myself "1-2-3 to a healthier me."(1/23 date). Ha!

I'm jealous you didn't have to do a pre-op diet. I have been on liquids for 2 weeks and would give anything to bite into something crunchy right now.

Congratulations and good luck tomorrow!

My surgery date was originally 01/23, but due to an insurance issue around where I'm having surgery, my date was pushed to 02/13. They let me know 4 days before surgery,so I was on my liquid diet, I now have to start all over again on 02/01. I was devastated, but I can wait, I've been waiting 6 months so far what is a few more weeks.

I think some nervousness is normal. My date is 1/26 and I have those moments too. Use your support system. We are all cheering you on as well.

      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?
