Hello everyone, I am so excited to have found this web site. I have sat for a few days reading and have found answers to a lot of my questions. So thank you for helping me. I am currently waiting on approval from my insurance company. I am on pins and needles. :teeth_smile:

That's great! Good luck! I too have found many enthusiastic people, and my husband was on board from the start. Bless him, he's even followed the preop and post op diets with me (above and beyond, I think!) Be sure and let us know when you are approved!

I told my husband that when I get that letter or phone call I will scream first then start to cry because this is what I have been waiting on something that will help me keep the weight off finially. I will be telling everyone that I am getting it

      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?
