I was just curious if anyone has had any negative side effects from their surgery. I hear a lot of good things and would like to hear first hand experiences and have an idea of the kind of negative consequences, other than the most common ones listed online, I could be putting myself at risk for.
I do have a consult appoint set for the 14th.

I haven't said anything to anyone but my husband either. I just haven't decided if, when, or who I want to tell.

Just starting my journey. Consult is on the 14th of Feb. Can't wait.

Thank you, I'm pretty stoked about it...

I'm excited and nervous. Can't believe that I've finally made this first step. Consult date 2/14

I wish you luck with your journey. I never had any luck with my pcp. They always tried talking me out of it and telling me to keep with the diets and exercise. I eventually had to locate a bariatric program on my own. I hope you have an understanding doctor, but if not know that there are other means to get the process started

Sorry to hear things went south, thank you for sharing your experience with me.

What kind of advice would you give to someone just starting the process?

Thank you all. It's good to hear that. My husband has always been supportive of me at any weight and we've always had a strong marriage. To be honest this wasn't something I even considered in my research until he asked me if I had looked into it.

Good evening,
After many years of self reflexion, I have decided that surgery is something I am ready to seriously persue. I recently started researching the different surgeries, side effects, and have started the initial process with one of the local wls programs available in my area. One of the things I'm am finding little information on is how the surgery has affected the significant others/spouses of those who have had the surgery. Has the experience been a positive change for them as well as the patient or not?

I've had my gallbladder removed already, so I won't have to worry that at least. I already take medication for GERD, so that has been a cause for concern in my decision, but I'm more worried about the possibility of ulcers.
