Anyone getting nervous like me? I am excited and nervous. Have not done to well on my 5 day pre-op diet. Gonna really hit it hard the next few days. How is everyone else doing? Did any one go out and stock up on your liquids?

Hi there,

My surgery is tomorrow morning, so I'm just a day ahead of you. I went out this weekend and stocked up on liquids. I live alone and the only thing I have yet to do is clear out my refrigerator, which I guess I can do either tonight or when I get back home.

I'm super excited :thumbup: and slightly nervous :wink2:, but I guess that comes with the territory. I'm not really nervous about the procedure itself, more so about the post-op liquid diet as I haven't had to be on a pre-op diet of any kind. I'm hoping I won't be starving since that's difficult for me to cope with.

All things said, I'm so excited to start this journey and begin the rest of my life on a healthy path. No more putting things off until I'm more comfortable with my outer self! This is truly a time of change and I for one, can't wait to get started!!! :rolleyes:

Good luck on your journey,

Nat

WOW tomorrow. Good luck to you. I am freaking out I was up all night reading the posts on after lap band removal. Reading about all the people that had to have them removed and why. I have never read those before. I really hope it all goes well. But now I am worried about what if I am one of those who only loses 10 in 4 months? Or has reflux. Or is sick all the time. I was so excited now I am worrying about everything and wondering if I have made the right decision. :smile2:

      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?
