After not having the cramp thing in my side for many days, I got my first fill on Thursday, and had one the next day! Only that one time, though, so it MUST be band-related.

The shoulder pain went away finally only to be replaced by that left side stitch. Kind of in the lower back but above the waist. Not all the time either. Yesterday I went to a church dinner and ate way too much. Since I don't have any fills yet, the food kept going down. But later during digestion; my band flet like a rubber band that had been stretched out too far. The port was actually pulling against the ab muscle where it is attached. Not a good feeling but a lesson well learned.

      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?
