Hi everyone. My name is Sue and I had lapband surgery April 17th, 2009. I had my surgery in Dallas, Tx at the Plano Surgical Center and Dr. Cribbins was my surgeon. Surgery went very good and the whole process from initial assessment to surgery was a very smooth process. The staff at the Surgical Center were very kind, attentive and professional. I had my 2nd fill today and what a difference I'm feeling. I feel I'm finally on the road to weight loss. I didn't lose much after my first fill. I have a 10cc band and only 2cc was put in the first time. I had 2 cc put in today. I can sure tell a difference now with 4cc in my band.

How are you doing three months post surgery? I really need someone to talk with me about the experience. I have lots of fear. Jeannie

      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?
