10days to my sleeve opt

Hi all,

I was supposed to get a MGB done but I changed my mind and opted to go for a sleeve instead. Although my doctor suggest MGB I am certain I can make the Sleeve work for me. But I do have a few questions:

1 - For someone who does not have a history of reflux - how likely am I to get it post opt? Would the type of good play a factor?

2 - Alcohol. I plan to stay away from beer what so ever but what about enjoying some occasional whiskey or vodka?

3 - Would 'dumping syndrome' be a menace?

Look forward to hearing back from you all.
