I've been struggling with liquids because it hurts and I can't catch my breath even when sipping. So just while ago my girlfriend sees me crying and I said I can't do this anymore. And she said won't you try using a spoon like you did with your Isopure drink. So I tried it and it definitely helps. Because me holding a cup up to my mouth doesn't work well with me. So spoon it is.... 1522552099136.thumb.jpeg.3f57fe84df22a010c39b99137c642830.jpeg

If you had any of those little baby medicine cups that might work too. Next time you go to your pharmacy ask if you can have some, they usually have them for kids cough syrups and they probably wouldn't charge for them as a courtesy to you, the customer.[emoji7][emoji12][emoji7]

You can order about 100 of them on Amazon for less than $5 if you can’t get them from the pharmacy. The hospital gave me three huge stacks of them. I used them for my crushed medication as well.

Well, that was one hell of a solution. I would have never thought that.

Hot Water works for me if you haven’t tried that yet. I can’t do cold water

      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?
