Ask anything you'd like. :)

I am heading back to Jerusalem clinic for my plastics possibly in May it shortly after.

The Dr and clinic are very clean, and a no nonsense kind if facility- he does a lot of surgeries a day, so it's in and out! :)

I took my husband with me- which in glad I did- he took care of me:)

I got my gallbladder out at the same time for only 800$ more - I am glad I did!!!

I took my own pain meds- you don't have to- but I'm glad I did :)

;) good luck- you will be happy you made the choice!!!!

In my opinion yes. But ask the coordinator for confirmation :)

      I hope everyone is having a lovely week so far! 
      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry ALL the time.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
