I have never vomited, I have never PB (in the 3mo of having my band) and now today I have been sick. Can a person go from one day being fine and the next day slipped?

you probably have not slipped--that takes a bit!! the band is fickle to say the least--maybe it did not like what you fed it--or you did not chew well enough or you ate too much or you drank too soon after eating....in any event don't be so quick to think its a slip!! there also might be a bug going around--not fun...but it passes!! I am 16 months out and have had it all..including a schedule for gall bladder surgery on oct 24th...thought it was just the band acting up till I threw up bile for 4 days....every day seems to bring both a new joy and/or malady:) best of luck...by the way I am 120 lost as of last friday...only 43lbs from goal!! it does happen!!

      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?
