Thank you! I'm hurting a little, but it's so nice to see my future in a much more positive way. I'm so glad I'm not one of the people that regrets it immediately.

I only hurt in one spot, but they keep my medicated. No gas pain or anything. Walking feels great! Just worried about the pain of the drain being removed.

I didn't have any drains for my surgery but I have had them in the past and they don't hurt coming out! Good luck

Congrats. I hope you are healing and feeling well. The first month was overwhelming but I have no regrets. Just take it one days at a time.

I had a drain. Be prepared, it's painful but the pain goes away fast.

      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.
