I just went to my consultation on the 2nd. Very nice guy. Answered all of my questions, and gave me his recommendations. They gave me a checklist on what I needed to do before we submit to insurance. I have my first nutrition class on the 14th there. For me, it was 100 for 3 classes. I have an upper GI test on Tuesday, (no clue if everyone has to do this), and blood work on the 15th. I’ve already did all my weigh ins with my regular pcp. 🙂 Hoping all goes as smoothly as the consultation! Good luck!!

      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?
