oh i see. that shouldnt be too bad. I already take b12 on a daily :).

oh geez thanks for the heads up. lol I appreciate you answering my hoards of questions for me lol. does Suzanne send you home with a last packet of bariatric recipies or something for your final pre op appointment? I have no clue what they are going to throw at me as far as the diet post op.

Also, obxshell how long was your hospital stay? Did you stay in your own room? Ill be at Reston Hospital.

Awesome. Thanks for the info obxshell! How long did u take off total for re-cooperating? I was thinking of taking off a week and hoping thats enough....but since that he doesnt give pain meds im wondering if i should extend that... Im scheduled for the 18th.

obxshell, were you a self pay patient?

It was pretty straight forward.. I already watched his pre-consult video and had very few questions.... I was just wondering if it was normal not to be required to do a sonogram or gastric endoscopy as he is not requiring it for me. Wondering if his previous patients have to do that.

Hi everyone, Im scheduled for surgery with Dr. Fitzer, I know im pulling up this thread from a while ago, but i was wondering if he required any one of you to do an endoscopy or sonogram before surgery? I am a self pay patient.
