Hi - I am from San Diego and had my consultation yesterday (Wed) and rec'd my date today - Oct. 21!!! That is only 3 weeks away! Next week I go to have a few tests. I will be on a two week fast. I am so excited and nervous. I will have my surgery at UCSD w/Dr. Horgan. I met there staff and they seemed very nice and supportive. Has anyone used them?

TIA

How are you doing since surgery? I will be having my surgery October 8th. I am getting a little nervous but excited. What kind of diet did you have to go on before surgery?

Actually, I have my first appointment with Dr. Horgan next Weds Dec 3rd. I'm so glad i came across your profile. I haven't found anyone in the San Diego Area. Let alone with the same Doc. Can you please let me know how the staff at the office and hospital was like? How did you hear about Dr. Horgan? hope we can become buddies....

      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.
