A simple hello will be sufficient



Recommended Posts

Hi Y'all -

I posted a question earlier with no response. Just a simple hello from anyone at this point will be nice. Hoping to be able to use this forum as an important tool as I work toward my weight loss goal.

Thanks from a newbie.

Hi. I just wanted to say that sometimes, there won't be a response if they are not familiar with that particular situation. It's not because they aren't willing to help. I have found that anyone that knows, will answer.

Anyway, welcome to the forum from another newbie.

Hi there Country girl!

Welcome, and what's the question you posted earlier? I was banded July 2nd, maybe I can help.

Hmmm...I know why I didn't post...you asked a specific question:

Anyone else here had any issues with other surgeries prior to banding?

And NO I didn't, so I figured you only wanted answers germaine to your question!!!

If you just wanted to introduce yourself, you could just say so! :smile:

Hi CountryGirlNY. I know what you mean - some of my posts do not get many replies either. I still put them out there, perhaps someone can relate. Hope all goes well for you!

Thanks Y'all!

No worries about my first question. It was very specific and I'm just praying that it's not going to be an issue.

My first consultation is on Wednesday - I guess I'll know more after that.

Hi, I'm a newbie, too, as of tonight. My surgery is scheduled for 10/6/08, and I am nervous. I see my surgeon on 9/23 for my pre-op. Again, ready, but nervous.

      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?
