So I had my sleeve done yesterday!!! Feeling ok today. Much better than expected. Nothing by mouth yet. Feeling thirsty, slight nausea. But feeling blessed to be up and moving around.

Glad you're doing okay. I was surprised at how much easier it was than expected. I was nauseous on Day #1, but felt good and was up and walking. Take care and good luck on your WLS journey.

Have you noticed any difference when you sip warm broth versus the ice Water? I am 18 days post op, and ice cold fluids cause spasms. I get pain if I gulp rather than several baby sips. I drink a lot of Crystal Light in cool, but not cold water. Try varying the temperature and take smaller sips.

Oh, I also found the lemonade Crystal Light gave me pouch pain. I switched to fruit punch and citrus and they are less acidic and irritating than lemonade.

@briswife15 omg... that’s what it feels like, some sort of spasm. Ok, noted. Will try warm rather than cold & hold off on the lemonade crystal light.

      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?
