Hi--From South Texas



Recommended Posts

Hello,

I'm new to this. I have been checking into banding for almost 6 weeks new. Reading, reading, reading and more reading. I had a referral to Corpus Christi Bariatrics but Ike sorta but a damper on that. Before I had time to reschedule got a call today from a very nice lady at Citizens said they were having a seminar this Saturday. I'm going. I was really hesitant at first about going thinking ..wow...Victoria..long ways compared to Corpus. I'm in the Rockport area. But low and behold I've read here on the boards that I can do my follow ups and fills in Corpus. From what I've read both places have excellent doctors and excellent care. Now the anxiety is all the dern phases you have to go through. But then I keep reminding myself I didnt get like this overnight and it's not going away overnight. Okay...I've rambled on enough...I could go on on on but won't

Thanks! Any comments or sugguestions are very welcomed! :rolleyes2:

      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?
