Hello Everyone,

I was banded on 12-22-08, so I am very new to this life. It would be great to have someone there to converse about all the changes that are to come. Thanks in advance

Hi,

I live in NJ & was banded on 11/7/07. I have lost 60lbs since than and I have had really good times with the band and some bad times. I would do it all over in a second. This site gives you alot of information and some scary stories. One of the best supports I think is the monthly meeting my hospital has. This way you get to talk to people that have had the same procedure. If you have questions or just want a lapband buddy. Send me a private message .

      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?
