Questions...How many nights did those of you who had gastric bypass stay in the hospital? I was just wondering because I saw something where there was a 2 night stay for bypass but my insurance letter only listed one night stay approval.

I stayed two night. But it was the dr choice if thought I was ready to go home or not. He had to make sure I was able to drink and keep it down .

I'm pretty upset. My hernia is the size of a football. I had it repaired in 2008. But the mesh is torn and no longer stapled... it was all pushed to the side. so since its torn they had to repair that. I need to come back in three months for my bypass. Ugh

I hate to hear that! Well, one more hurdle down!

I only stayed one night. If I wasn't able to keep down the Protein Shakes I would've had to stay a second night.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
