Wednesday surgery day for gastric sleeve



Recommended Posts

I came home on Thursday and its Saturday I've already lost another 14 lbs. I am now in onederland at 189 lbs. Haven't seen onederland since about 8 years ago. I love my sleeve, it was easy, no complications, no distress just loving my new appetite never thought this would really come true.

I had Aetna Better health and I'm disabled so I'm on Medicaid thru Aetna they paid everything except the nut dr visits first visit was 30.00, and the other five 15.00 each, and you need a clearfast drink carbohydrate the night before surgery and one two hours before, they cost 20.00

      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.
