After going through extensive testing for the last 5 months they discovered a "possible" problem when I took the Upper GI. I had to go to a Specialist for another test and discovered that I have all the symptoms of acid reflux even though I never have had acid reflux. They called it "silent" acid reflux. Evidently, if you have the symptons of acid reflux you can not have the sleeve but you must have the gastric bypass. This all happened last Friday and I was to have the surgery today (Monday). I am disappointed but I am so glad they found out now instead of finding out after I had the sleeve surgery and had complications with the sleeve. Has anyone else had this problem?

That's grate news!

AWESOME NEWS!

Surgery has be rescheduled for June 1st. I am very excited to say the least. Soon I will be on the losers bench.

So glad to hear that you did get clearance for the surgery you wanted as apposed to the surgery the surgeon wanted. Sometimes surgeons push the sugery that is best for them as apposed to the patient. Good for you! Good luck. Keep us posted.

Glad your surgery is back on! Congrats!

So glad it worked out for you!!!

That is weird, but im a believer that everything happens for a reason!!! Good Luck

Wonderful news! Congrats and I will be thinking of you on June 1st (you picked a great date, BTW, it's my 15 year wedding anniversary!)
