Any March Banders out there



Recommended Posts

I am supposed to be banded anytime from March 21 to March 28, so I guess I am an unofficial March bandster until I get a solid date on March 11. And I will be oh so happy to post my official date upon my return from the surgeon's office. I hear a lot of people out there saying they're scared, which is TOTALLY understandable. But for some reason, I feel like jumping on my surgeon's exam table and screaming "CUT ME, DOC, I'M READY!!!!" I guess it helps that I've already had a gallbladder removal and a C-section, so I know kind of what to expect.

I am on March 19th, too! I am going to Dr. Ortiz in Tiajuana, and I cannot wait. I have no second thoughts and no doubts. I have had the "This will probably be the last time I can eat this" blues, but they are little and healthy is big.

I cannot wait! Or, is that "weight?"

      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?
