Well, I am a grannie, too and I live in Jacksonville. I'd be happy to talk to you on the phone, or meet. But I may not be the best help. I had NO problems, pain, gas, etc. after my surgery. I DO know that being able to talk to someone in person can be invaluable. E-mail me and I'll give you my number. I don't work, so I'm available to talk just about any time.

I forgot to mention, for me icey cold liquids will slam that stoma shut, sure as shootin'. Warm, and I can eat well, after. Hot, I can eat GREAT after.

I am in Apex N.C. and I was banded on July 11. Since I don't know anyone else with a band I could use a buddy to share experiences with. I too am a granny of three beautiful little girls.

Soon to be (I hope) Skinny Grandma

Hi,

I can't be a mentor to you because I was just banded myself 7/11 but I could be a friend and maybe we could walk this path together. I also am a grannie. Skinny Grandma

      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?
