Hello My Friends,

It's been 3 days since my surgery and I feel good. My surgery was Monday around 2pm and I was in my room by 5, the only thing I remember was my doctor making a joke about having his glasses on and the next thing I remember was them calling my name and me freaking out and swinging my arms around:scared2: but they calm me down and I went back to sleep. I tell you I was drugged up that I couldn't keep my eyes open it was 4am when I can finally was able to keep my eyes open but I had no pain the only problem was everytime they gave me antibiotics I got really nauseated.:bored:The next morning they did my swallow test and blood work and everything came out good so I was able to go home by 2pm. The only problem I had at home was finding a place that I could feel comfy to sit down and lay down. The first night I woke up around 3am with really bad gas pains and body aches that I started pacing around my house like a crazy person but I made me feel better and I got some sleep. On Wednesday the only problem I had was the gas pain and body aches so all I did all day was walk and walk and trust me it helps I haven't been so happy farting in my life!:) lol but it feel so good when you do. Today I feel good gas pains are almost all gone and I started eating a little to see how my body reacts but so far my friends all is good.

Good luck to those who's surgery is soon and I will keep you posted.:)

      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.
