Thank you!!!! [emoji846]

I'm only a month out but I don't feel that pain when I drink Water or my Protein Shakes anymore like I use too. But I just wanted to see if that was normal.

I'm a month out and can do three medium swallows at a time, a fourth brings discomfort.

Same here. I also want to know is it normal not to feel the infamous pain we here so much about pre surgery? I'm afraid I'm being too cautious because at times this causes anxiety not wanting to screw up . I will be 1 month post op in 3 days.

I never had the pain either. I did focus on sipping, just out of paranoia, lol. I can drink pretty regular now. I had my sleeve at the end of January.

Hb7356 that is real encouraging thanks. The fight to win is real. For the first time in about 20 years I weight less than 300 lbs was 350 in January today 278 . At barely 1 month post op. This is still only the beginning of the rest of my life. And I so want to get it right this time.

Great post. I was wondering myself if I'd every drink normally again. I don't mind sipping my drinks but look forward to being able to quench the heat or the thirst by taking a normal drink.

      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?
