Your surgery is 3/23/05? Thats Wednesday! I saw on another post you were getting a little apprehensive. thought you could use a pep talk. You will be fine. Sounds like your DR knows what he is doing and alot of his pts have posted here on LBT with all good things. Its normal to be scared before hand, your taking a big step. A big step in the right direction that is. Relax and go with the flow right now. your exciting new life is right around the corner.

Panda: I couldn't agree more with Beth. It is normal to be anxious / apprehensive prior to any surgery. I can't speak if you are making the right decision or not but for me it was the absolute right one. I have never regretted the surgery. I have a much better quality of life now.

      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.
