Surgery in 2 weeks!

[mmitti]

Hi. My sleeve surgery is on Jan. 21. My Doc is doing sleeve because I'm 65 and he said the Gastric Bypass has your system dumping calcium like crazy. I feel pretty prepared. I've watched tons of YouTube stuff on the surgery (and I realize to take some of it with a grain of salt. haha).
I'm glad I found this site. I was browsing on the Internet for support groups. The practice I'm involved with only has monthly meetings; I was hoping for weekly somewhere. Thanks. Mary

Bill, maybe it's a female thing. Who knows? I hope you're journey is going well. Did you have a lot of heartburn?
