Anyone here sleeved in Mexico on the same day as their spouse? Just wondering, my husband and I are planning for May of this year. Wanted to know what it was like for anyone else, or do you think this is a terrible idea?
I,personally ,would have at least a couple of days between each surgery. Each of you need to be alert Nd aware when the other is having their surgery,unless there will be a third person there to help out/ speak for you.
No special support system. He was well versed by me - I had an RNY in 2008. He met with their dietitian during the pre-op visit the morning prior to surgery, as well as their psychologist. The processes vary with different surgeons and facilities from what I have read here over the years. My husband went to Dr. Joya in Puerto Vallarta, surgery was at Hospital Amerimed. Everything was top notch. There was a lady from Manitoba there at the same time who went down on her own - and I do know of several people who have gone on their own with no problems.
I used beliteweight in 2009 and they were great I had my surgery by Dr. John Webber in Detroit i Live in Northern Ca. I was doing great with my weight loss until a Dr. in my home town ruined my Lap Band about 4 years ago and now I have to have it removed and I'm really mad as I have put part of the weight I lost back on but that has nothing to do with beliteweight just the Dr. in my home town I know of three people that this doctor ruined their lap bands.....
I had my surgery with Serigo Quinones he was great he treats his patients like they are familial well with me he did any way.
And you might want to check his credentials as well.
I had to do a lot of research before I just jumped up and decided that I was going to make a big change in my life health wise I mean.
I decided that Dr.Quinones was the best for me because I liked that he he is proctor from Johnson and Johnson and that he had 4 years of training as a trauma surgeon.
He was chef of general at Tijuana General. He is a siting member of arbitration committee. Has done surgical residence in the U.S.. And that he also teaches other doctors to do bariatric surgery.
To me all that really caught my eye and made me fill that he really knows what he is doing.
I also fill that I was right because he did a great job on me I could not of ask for more. even the incessions are really little and they are healing really good.
Sorry forgot to tell you that I was charged 4500 and 50 for med to take home with you after the surgery.
And I was even able to take a friend with me no charge.
Good luck on your journey.

Sorry I have been really sick the past few days,but not due to my surgery I just got a flu.
But now I am feeling better I am finally able to move around.
I am going to start doing my daily routine of walking, I have had about 3 days of nothing I hope that I do not feel tired and sore all over again due to this flu.
But just wanted to check in and let every body know that I am still alive hahah.
I am not how they do it in MX but I recently had a procedure where I was going to be out and they said put your purse and all in a plastic bag and it stays under your bed. I didn't feel that was very safe but that is what they did.
HW:330 - GW:150 - MW:118-125
RW:190 - CW:130
This seems like a silly question, I know. I've been doing a ton of research and I've never actually seen this mentioned. I wouldn't take expensive jewelry or anything, but a cell phone, tablet, etc. When I'm out cold, where do I leave them?
Thanks!
My spouse didn't need the sleeve so I have no experience with having it at the same time, although I did do it in Mexico. I will say this though. My doctor told me not to lift anything above 10 lbs after the surgery for a month, so if you all are traveling and doing the sleeve together, pack really lightly, as you won't be able to lift your luggage. Good luck to you both.
