Recommended Posts

It's been a VERY LONG 3 years back and forth with insurance, but finally it's almost here. I'm nervous, yet anxious and all sorts of other feelings. Actually think i'm ready??? Ready or not, here it comes!:thumbup:

believe all who respond positive, it is worth the wait and all will be just fine, my hubby was with me and i myself was telling him i couldn't believe it was the day, after waiting 1 year because of my bp problems, i was only down for one and one half days and that was the day of and after. i'm now moving around like it didn't occur, often doing something that will remind me good luck to you ALL WILL BE FINE :blush:

      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?
