My surgery is on the 5th of December and I haven’t decided yet..!

My surgery is less than three weeks. And I still haven’t decided if I want the gastric sleeve or the bypass. And now I’m so scared and nervous I can’t even think straight on the pros and the cons. Please my new friends share with me some good and bad. Please share with me privately or openly.

    I am scheduled for Dec 5 also [emoji173]️ I went initially for the sleeve than was leaning to the bypass. After meeting with my surgeon he strongly suggest the sleeve since I did not have reflux or diabetes. The sleeve is easier on you body and if you have problems you can get it revised to the bypass. At least that’s my understanding.
