Hi James, good to have you on here! I'm in mayo and had a gastric sleeve in the Galway Clinic a little over a week ago.
Whereabouts on the bariatric journey are you?

And a top of the morning to you both! I'm red headed , Irish enough that my sons were Kevin and Bryan. But mostly I'm a garden variety American mutt, loveable but a little of several breeds. I guess I've got hybrid vigor, I've made it to 72, alas I think I'm built like a loaf of soda bread, working at getting leaner and fitter. I didn't put all this weight,on in one day and it isn't melting off as fast as I desired. But slowly slowly it will go. I think if you have more than 1 drop of Irish blood you'd like to see it for yourself. Ah --'Maybe someday I will! And Galway and Donegal ,i'm sure lovely lovely places.

Hi all, I just back from galway, seen my doctor today given the green light for my op, getting very nervous, I have done the milk diet and then went to crio house in galway for nine weeks, a lot of driving and up early, hopefully it will be all worth it.😰😰

Good stuff, I had a few hiccups with Insurance after I did the Croi course also, but got there in the end.

I assume you'll probably be under the same surgeon as myself - Chris Collins?

      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?
