Congrats on the brave decision. I'm interested and very curious to see how things go for you guys. I'm in the beginning stages of researching the sleeve surgery in mexico for myself. I wish you all good luck!

did you have your surgery done by Dr.Kelly on Jan 10. How did it go I have surgery with him on Feb 13th. I would like hear about your experience with him. Thanks
Hi Irma, of course your are suspicious another country and give away your credit card information? no way I have my surgery in Mexicali no Tijuana but the staff pick me up in San Diego airport and drove me back after surgery, I only did a deposit of $250 Dlls. to and Bank of America account, send my medical information and that's it, all my pre labs and consultation where in Mexicali as soon as I get in there. SO I was very confident about it. I haven't hear nothing from that Dr. but I think that you should do more research, this is something that you need to be very careful, have your surgery with the right Dr. is the thing that matters the most, and of course your health!!

30 lbs that's awesome!!!!
OK so I've been looking at a different Dr than you but by what your saying I want Dr Kelly. Do you have a contact #for him?
Cheers Barb
I am doing great! I can drink fluids like before ... I was worried about dehydration so I am happy fluids go in easily! I have no pain ... My tummy is itchy though .. Lol
i am down almost 30 lbs since my pre-op! Super excited about that!
Yes the exchange rate is terrible but you should just bite the bullet and DO IT ... You won't regret it! Wish you had done it at the same time ... I had a great time visiting with the other patients! We all keep in touch too!

Great to hear all went well, How are you doing 2 weeks Out? I still haven't made my appointment, now the darn exchange is so terrible....just another excuse. I wish I would have been on the ball and come and met you there. And had it over with.

Dana!!! :D
I figured that plane ride would be rough, especially with work Monday! I started work the same day and boy did it take a lot out of me! I'm still having much less energy than usual but I also got my period on top of everything else -_- .
I still have some abdominal soreness after starting work, Prudence says its normal. And I'm not tolerating any kind of powdered protein AT ALL :( I'm going to try some digestive enzymes/probiotics, I heard the antibiotics can wipe out the good stuff in the gut along with the bad, so hopefully that should help restore peace to the kingdom lol.
My love to you and Shelley!!

Good morning chickie,
This is Dana your sleeve buddy. Sounds like things are going well. Both Shelley and I had a bit of a rough trip flying home on Thursday and made for a weekend of a bit of pain and sleep. We are both doing much better now, just a bit tired in the mornings which will get better as time goes.
