First visit in May and surgery in October.
Real life begins where your comfort zone ends
I was wondering how soon after your preop exam you had surgery? I feel like I worded this wrong. haha I guess I'm just trying to get a feel for how much time it took from exam to getting a surgery date.
Thanks!

I honestly don't measure but as of lately I'm unable to eat without this problem. I've had acid reflux prior to the surgery. I had chicken brith for dinner and I was fine I feel it's some if the food or the protonix I'm taking it gives me nausea to where food grosses me out. I see my doctor today hoping for positive outcome.
I would say to go see your doctor. But by chance are you still measuring your food? Do you think you are overeating at times? Could that cause acid reflux? Have you tried under eating your sleeve? Meaning instead of 8 oz eating 5 oz at one sitting. Eating and then laying down could cause acid reflux too.

Yes, I started at 212. I opted for the sleeve. Not because I was scared of the bypass, but because I didn't have gerd and my doctor felt confident that I would do well with the sleeve.
I remember sitting in the doctors office talking to my surgeon telling him that he was not the person who was getting ready to have 3/4 of their stomach removed. And I will always remember what he said to me at that time. He said that no matter what he and his team will always be here for me. He said I can come there for the rest of my life. They will monitor my blood work, my mental health, my diet etc...this is the best decision I ever made. I am still a size 2 and health. I am just your average joe when it comes to intelligence. But I followed what they told me to do and have been successful and just like others on the board, I want to see others successful too.
