These posts are educating more me in a couple of days than my first 4.5 months in my Bariatric program. My PA. tells me (haven't met the surgeon yet) I can decide which surgery I have gastric bypass or sleeve gastrectomy. The PA. is telling me they feel like the bypass is a little better in their opinion overall. She suggested since my wife is having the bypass (were both scheduled hopefully late spring Covid permitting) maybe I should do the same. My concern now is what will I do for joint pain after Surgery, long-term nobody has mentioned this to date. I realize weight loss will help but it's not going to help with all of my of my pain Tylenol is like taking sugar pill other than headaches. I have two choices in my area for bariatric programs hopefully I picked right. It sounds like the sleeve maybe the better option. The PA knows that I take naproxen every day.
Any feedback is welcome.
