Hi Patty how are you doing? How did it go yesterday?




I'm doing ok....not in a lot of physical pain actually. I am able to get up and walk...just really sleepy. I did my leak test this morning and everything is fine now trying to drink 1 oz of apple juice and wow it is like the hardest thing ever! It's insane and to think a couple of hours ago I would have gulped this down!

      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.
