Just got my date, next Friday the 12th! I’m starting my pre op diet today, as they only just gave me the date, I’m so happy to have a short lead up though!

Great info from everyone, I really appreciate the input.

Thank you, I am definitely leaving towards the RNY now because of the Gerd but also because I am happier with a more restrictive diet with the dumping, I'm worried I'd will do the wrong thing with the sleeve!

My dietitian gave me other options as I am lactose intolerant and the shakes have lactose, basically the same macro amounts as having the shakes but in food form, so I can have about a quarter cup of carbs or 1 slice bread, 150g raw weight meat or fish (100g cooked weight), plus vegetables, 3 times a day. With the final day before surgery being only clear Fluid.

My surgeon told me that 20% of RNY patients suffer from chronic stomach pain with no found cause. This is putting me off the RNY but I have to have it as I can’t have the sleeve because of GERD. Anyone had this problem? I’m not seeing anything anywhere!
