Hi! I was just wondering if anyone else has missed a period after being banded? I had my last one 10/8 and was banded on 10/13. And I am still waiting for mother nature to due her thing. I am a 28 day girl every month. It now day 32 and I know there is NO possible way I could be pregnant. My husband seems to think it's because the stress of the surgery on my body and the drastic change in my eating habits. Thanks!!! :blink:

Well I would be just as happy if I never had another one again. ha ha I had an uterine ablation 1 1/2 years ago and the doc said only about 10% of patients still have a period. Well you know I was one of the lucky 10%.

OMG, me too! I had mine done about 6 years ago. I am hoping that as I lose weight, my cycles will stop all together. Otherwise, my doc is recommending I have another one. She said that since I was younger than 35 when I had mine done, I may need another one within 5 years. Good luck to you!

      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?
