Dear Enzochief,

I had surgery on (9/25/07) also. How much weight have you lost in pounds? What size band do you have? I have a 10cc band and my first fill was 4cc, close to yours. My doc said to do Clear Liquids first two days followed by full liquids for two days then on to regular food. I've had some issues with sudden pain that lasts for a few seconds then it alleviates. Just wondering if you are experiencing anything like this. I'm wondering exactly what is happening anatomically.

So far today I have lost 37 lbs. I dont have any pain in my chest but after the 2nd day it hurts to drink anything. My doctor said if i have any trouble I should call him. 4.5cc for my first fill.

Our doctor wants us on liquids the first day of fills and the mushiees and by the third back to regular foods. After a week on the first fill I had no restriction. He said this time you should really notice it more and it should last longer.

      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?
