I have nothing to offer other than I've heard people mention their voice changes a bit after losing a lot of weight. But i dont know how true it is.
The only thing surgery wise I'd say that would directly effect your vocals would be the tube they put down your throat during surgery but you would be fine after a day or so, so unless you'd be singing the same week you had surgery, i wouldn't worry. I just think it's AWESOME you're training to be an opera singer. That's amazing!

I am so please that you asked this as I hadn't even considered it. I used to sing in bands but now limit myself to theatre work. I was going to audition for a singing part just before my surgery so I hope nothing changes afterwards. Thank goodness it is not my day job.

Anecdotally, my ex had the bypass done and she has had no issues with singing, she just had a solo in the holiday pageant at her church actually.

No issues for me, in fact probably some improvement as weight loss makes my breath control easier

      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?
