Hello, I am new here. My band date is 4/8 and I have started to get really nervous and question my decision. I came here to get reassurance and so glad I did from the stories I have already read. I am still nervous but now once again excited about my decision. I am self pay so it was a very hard decision.

I admire you for making a life changing decision for yourself. Believe me, I was once in your shoes and so far, I would do it again. To me, it really is worth it because I am worth it...good luck

Hi, TXSkinny

I too have finally made the decesion to do this for me. I go in on April 3rd and have my band put in. I am so ready. Praying that all goes smooth and easy. Good luck on your surgery also.

      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?
