Well, I just had my first PB, and it was not a fun experience. I had just read a post by Jack that talked about how you get that feeling that you did something wrong after about 2 bites, and that's exactly how it was for me. Two bites, incredible pain, and then PB! There is a gal on OH that has in her signature line "A PB is like the big O-if you have to ask if you did it then you didn't." Boy, you aren't kidding!!

That saying is so funny... I do believe I've come across that before.

Sorry to hear you had a PB... can I ask what it was that you ate? Had you eaten that food before or were you trying something new since banding?

Thanks for the warning sign... I'm always worried about getting one of those, nothing close to it yet...

What is PB'd??? I get that it is when food does not work, but what does that mean. I think I am brain dead before Christmas~

It means "productive burp". Which is really just a nice way of saying barfing!

lol., that is too funny. Just think of it this way. Once you do it, it becomes easier. Shucks, I even PB sometimes brushing my teeth!

Oh boy, something to look forward to!!:biggrin1:

We have a lot in common. I am the same age and well, I'm only 4'10" (stretching tall). I was banded 11/30/07 and luckily, have not experienced the "pb"... You will reach that goal!

      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?
