My Referral was finally sent to the Doctor's office and I made my appointment for my consultation! What should I expect going into this consultation? What are some questions I should ask or that you wished you had asked? 😄

If it is anything like mine you will watch a video or presentation with a group and it will have TONS of information. Then you will break up and see the Dr for individual questions. But they really didn't leave a lot to ask they pretty much covered everything.

Thank you for your reply! I did the seminar online and the next step is to meet with the surgeon at my consultation. I believe I meet with him briefly to discuss my options and for him to answer any questions that I have then I will go with the coordinator and schedule all of my preop requirements.

Mine was exactly what Mom_of_Chaos described. It went over EVERYTHING, including what is covered, not covered and oh yeah, they scheduled all the requirements already. Very informative.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
