Recommended Posts

Howdy all - Excited to have now crossed over to post-op. Had VGS 18DEC with the incredible Dr. Joseph Greene, Maryland Bariatrics. You can read and read and read, but still not know what to expect. I have to say, 2 days post and I am getting along better than anticipated. A bit achey but will prepared. Excited about the next leg of my journey. Glad to have a home to share, learn, support and get supported!

Only drawback... couldn't go see SWIX on opening day [emoji19]

I was achey afterwards as well. Had VSG on 12/16. I'm truly happy I found this site because there is so much info available pre and post op.

      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?
