I am in the same boat, just finished everything and met with the dr yesterday. Set everything up for next Wednesday July 25. Now this morning I am scared and thinking if I should do the surgery. But we have to look what got us to look in to this surgery. For me weight, High BP and high cholesterol and of course to be here for my little one. This forum is amazing and they all have gone thru and had amazing result. We can do this. Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app

Nurse said it only add about 10 min more could be less of table time. Said it less invasive, less down time and less leaks. Want to ask dr. as many question as I can, why this will be a better way. Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app
