I told my husband about my decision to have surgery.



Recommended Posts

Hi I haven't told my husband yet as I am sure it will be a money thing with him too. Here in Switzerland insurance will not pay so I'm doing it on my own without his knowledge. I have told my best friend and she is very supportive but I will need you guys! I'm scheduled for sept.11th.......a bad omen?

hey travellady,

Exactly! I think that we r saying the same thing. U know him better than anyone. Maybe its just his way. I hope u didnt take offense to my previous post. Did I sound too straight forward? I just want to keep you encouraged. God knows u all keep me going and focused. I know that everything is going to turn out just fine.

My dh is one of thodeb unexcited types too. What works for me is not mention it at all. When he hearsb about it again we will be heading to the hospital.

If this was for him.... I would hear lapband all day everyday... Non-stop updates.

Yes, we are saying the same thing and no offense is taken. I really do appreciate all the support I am being given from this site. I feel all y'all understand the problems each one of us going through and we are in this together. :biggrin2::frown:

Curves: Since my dh is not talking about the surgery, I'm not discussing it anymore. He knows he cannot get me to change my mind, especially since it is for my health.:)

      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?
