Dr.Zavalza! Tijuana Mexico! Surgery Tomorrow!



Recommended Posts

Hey guys!

I just got to Tijuana Mexico and my surgery is TOMORROW at 4pm!!!! I cant wait!!! ☺

Such a great experience so far! Sorry this is all over the place, just so excited to be here!

I flew into San Diego today at 11am and was picked up by David, he is so nice and sweet, I felt like I was hanging out with a close friend. David drove me to Wal-Mart so I could get some last minute things I didn't/couldn't bring on the plane (chicken broth). It took us about 15 minutes from Walmart in San Diego to get to the recovery house, so close from the boarder!

I just got settled in at their recovery house, It. Is. Gorgeous! I feel very secure, the front has a locked gate that you have to buzz people in. I pretty much have a 2 bedroom apartment to myself because the last patient flew out this morning.

I'm watching the big game in my room! Go Hawks!! I have access to their wi-fi, english cable tv, and even a laptop that I can use to call home or skype. The beds are so comfortable.

Im going to take a nap but wanted to write yall first. I was so excited for today I couldnt sleep lastnight!

David helped me order a chicken salad from a local restaurant, it was so yummy!

I took some photos of the recovery house, I'll attach them below for yall! Ill do another update tomorrow on the hospital and more photos!

Please ask tons questions if you're thinking about going through Dr.Zavalza. I'd be happy to answer your questions! :)

*Photos uploaded weird. Ugh.

      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!!
