Our stats are almost identical, and I have been thinking of a bypass due to reflux also. What made you decide on the surgeon you chose?








Thanks,




Tracy Lane


The surgeon I chose has high reviews and he was honest with me about the reflux he said most surgeons would probably just give me the sleeve I wanted but he was honest and told me what the risks were and didn’t advise it that’s why I went with him he actually cared about me

I'm 5'3" and had bypass at 228 lbs 10 weeks ago. I also had GERD/acid reflux. I'm happy with my choice.

Hi. My reflux is gone! Pain killers usually make me nauseous, but I took Dilauded in the hospital, and since they were also giving me Zofran every 6 hours for nausea anyway I was fine. I needed the Dilauded while I was in the hospital for 2 nights/3 days.

I’m 5’1 and 258 and will be having the bypass due to my GERD. I previously had the sleeve and that is when I started having issues with GERD/acid reflux. It is so bad for me. I am scheduled for the 24th of this month!

I had the vertical sleeve August 2012 and will be revising to the RNY in the next couple of months — surgery date to be determined early August. I'm also on the lower end — BMI wise — at 214 lbs currently (4 lbs more than my pre-VSG weight/193 lbs on the day of surgery). Mostly revising to get rid of GERD (hopefully) amongst several other issues I've developed.

You're only 3 days away! Good luck — Wishing you a safe recovery and NO MORE REFLUX! :)

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
