Do any of you ever wake up in a scare that you have just consumed food that you shouldn't have? I am having them on a weekly basis! The most recent one was of comsuming an entired Dr. Pepper and I wok up and freaked out!! It is hilarious to think that food is my new nightmare! :(

That's funny! Thanks for sharing your dream.

Before you go to bed maybe you could just say to yourself that there are no "off limit" foods with the lapband. Having a Dr. Pepper isn't bad - don't do it everyday...but every once in a while isn't going to hurt anything.

But I've had some weird dreams about the band. Others have posted they fear a slip or other damage so much that it enters their dreams. I've worried about malnutrition and have had dreams that my teeth would come out.

Dreams about losing teeth are probably not related to your surgery directly. People experiencing a great deal of stress often dream of losing teeth. So try to target your stress and ease it back some! Good luck.

I find that if I eat at night before bed, which I try hard not to do, I have nightmares. They can be about anything, it's weird. I can't wait to have dreams where I am skinny in them lol....

      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?
