I'm so excited! I managed to get rid of my cold and feel great. I'm a little nervous about the post-op pain, but I'm ready! I've worked too hard to turn back now. I wanted to thank everyone for their suggestions over the last few weeks. Talk to you all soon! :biggrin:

You sound like your doing great! My surgery is Tuesday and I've been feeling so nervous all week. Not nervous enough to back out, but I feel slightly nausiated all the time. Good Luck to you!!!

Good luck tomorrow! I had my lapband surgery last Thursday the 10th and everything went great!! I had to stay over night and was released on Friday at 5pm. I started liquids on Friday...1 oz every 15 minutes. I had no pain medicine. I feel really good! Stay strong and everything will turn out great! Keep me posted.

      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.
