Good luck! Don't be nervious, fills aren't so bad.

Doctors vary on what they want you to do after a fill. Mine does 2 days liquid, 2 days mushie then progress back to solid.

My first fill didn't make a huge difference but I did feel slightly more restriction. Take it slowly until you get used to the new restriction and you should be fine!

It's okay.... no big deal!

My doctor says for me to eat soft foods that evening and them I am set. Otherwise, don't go home and eat a steak sandwhich. He has also said to avoid scratchy foods for a day or so....

Remember.... CHEW, CHEW, CHEW AND THEN CHEW SOME MORE!!!!

I have found that 45 years of bad habits are hard to break. I constantly have to worry about chewing and eatting to fast. I have finally been able to go for days with out a PB! But it's tough....

      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?
