Made it to the other side :)
Hello! I had my sleeve done with Dr. Ortiz about 12 hours ago and am feeling great. No pain...apparently the meds work well. OCC is a beautiful facility. Everyone is kind and helpful. The rooms are wonderful. Dr. Ortiz is so down to earth and sweet. You can feel how he wants to make a difference in the obesity fight.
All in all it's been very positive.

Hi Patti,
I am glad everything has been a positive experience and that you are in no discomfort. Going to Mexico worked well for me, you won't regret your decision. Enjoy the new journey you are on and remember to take pictures along the way as the changes will happen fairly quickly.
Take Care and I'll see you at the May Fiddle Jam
Hi Patti, congratulations and welcome to the loosers bench. Mexico is awesome, hope you can take in some of the scenery. Enjoy the warm weather - because you wont get that here LOL. Hope you can make it to our meet and greet on Feb. 21st. Barb
