Hello from Lower Delaware



Recommended Posts

Hello Everyone, I'm new to this site. I am looking forward to getting banded soon. I am looking for support groups near me. Any ideas?

Each state has a group on the forum. On the main page scroll down and you will see the "support" section. Look for the USA and then look for your state, you'll meet other banders from your state and maybe some local to you.

Hi Mojo:

I didn't find the section here helpful as there is really nothing for Delaware at all. Here is the information that I have found. I am not exactly sure where in lower Delaware you are so I put all the stuff for anything but New Castle County:

Downstate Downsizers (Lapband) - 4th Wednesday at 7 p.m. Call or Email Cathy Bronersky at 302-659-5597 or lapband406@yahoo.com

New Beginnings on 2nd Thursday at 7 pm. Smyrna Church of Christ, 1630 Goldsborough Rd., Smyrna, DE 19977. Contact is Ginger Barkley at 302-653-5971 and email is ginbark@aol.com

New Life WLS on the 3rd Thursday at 7 pm at Harrington Volunteer Fire Co., 20 Clark St., Harrington, DE. Contact Joanne Hammond at 302-947-0417 or email at Hambear73@aol.com

Rehobeth WLS on the 1st Tuesday at 7 pm at St. Mark's United Methodist Church, 18 Olive Ave., Rehobeth, DE. No real contact info on this one.

Hope this helps!

      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?
