I was so happy yesterday after finding out that I was approved for surgery that I didn't think this week could get any better.

That is until today.......

I recieved a call from my programs office this morning schueduling me to see the surgeon. They were able to get me in next week on 12/20! This will be my first meeting with him so I am really looking forward to it. It seems like everything is falling into place finally and I am on my way to being banded in February. What a great early Christmas present!

      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?
