Hello, I am so happy to report that I am on my journey!! I passed my UGII tests, had 2 dietician apt. with one more to go, had a counselor apt. and January 3rd I have an apt. with the surgeon. He mentioned to me already that the bypass might be the better choice for me.
I was just wondering if anyone else has had the experience of their surgeon suggesting that the bypass may be a better choice than the gastric sleeve? I had the lap band for 8 yrs, then had it removed 4 yrs ago. I did have acid reflux most of the time. Since I've had it taken out I no longer have these issues. Maybe the Sleeve is more of a risk for acid reflux (?)
With my research I am convinced that I want the Gastric Sleeve and refuse to do the Gastric Bypass. My doctor most likely will let me make the final decision. I would love to hear if anyone has feedback on this, I would greatly appreciate your thoughts. Thank You so much! )
