Recommended Posts

I had my surgery July 30th, also had some complications. Now ready to eat anything in site but been keeping it down to a minimum. Called today for my first fill.. Since I had trouble with a prefill I am kind of scared but I will do it slowly. Say a prayer that all goes well..:thumbup::eek:

.... and here Iv been a bit jealous of folks who got prefills. My surgeon doesnt believe they are safe. Try not to be too scared. Im scared of shots too and almost fainted, second fill went a bit better.

Its not as bad as what you are scared of. Are you having the fill done under fluor?

all went well not under flour. Started with 3 CC but by the time I left we were down to one... He said that since all of the problems we will start slow. So 1 CC at a time..

      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?
