Best of Luck to You! How are you doing with the pre-op requirements? Does your surgeon require an all liquid or mostly liquid diet?

Hi,

I've completed all the pre-op testing requirements. My doctor requires 4 days of liquids. 2 days full liquids and 2 days Clear Liquids. I start that on Thursday. I'm so pleased to have this surgery that the liquid diet is a small thing when compared to how much better my life will be.

Good Luck to you yellowtopaz! I will be banded on January 27th and have started my pre op diet. So far, I'm fine as long as I stay "in the zone".

Best of luck to you Ms. Kelley. Within only a day separating us, it'll be cool to compare notes. You hang in there. The 27th isn't far away and you can do it.

      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?
