Girl I would be scared to go to Mexico for surgery, but it must be ok because I am hearing a lot more people are doing it.    Cool to have another lez on the board.  :)    OK< now give me some details woman,  how did you find out about Mexico?  Were you scared at first?  What did it cost?  any complications?  How long were you in Mexico?    You know just everything.

Glad your revision went well.   Saw the pics, Gonna go watch your video now.

 

So you got the sleeve, how do you like it?

You are your girl are cute together, congrats on 2 1/2 years.

LOL, thank you! I researched a few people on youtube and heard of Mexico. I did a lot of research before I decided on going and choosing my doc. I was very scared but put my faith in God. The cost for me was $6200 because I had a revision from lapband to sleeve. I was in Mexico for 6 days and all is well. Thx for watching my videos. I have my whole Mexico experience documented on my youtube channel as well. I tell and show everything if you wanted to know more or see more.

OK, I am going to check out your videos.   I was looking into a revision from the RNY to the DS but that surgery scares the **** out of me because it is so complex,  I was looking at Dr. Rabkin here in San Francisco who is the #1 doctor doing it but his charge is like $30,000 or something crazy like that.

Sheeeeesh, yes thats why I went to Mexico. Its much cheaper. See some people don't realize that its much cheaper in Mexico because we pay $5000-$8000 for any surgeries but in their money(pesos) its like we are paying $30,000-$60,000 once they change it over. Thats why we come out cheaper. Any help I can be please let me know.

Oh yeah I know everything is cheaper in Mexico, but for such a extensive surgery as rny to ds there is no way I would do it there.  If I get it done I am going to the #1 surgeon in California that does it, Dr. Rabkin.   He is expensive as hell but that surgery has so much potential for something to go really bad, I'm just not taking any chances, If I had not gotten a rny I would be willing to go with a cheaper doctor but hell no for this.
