  1. Thanks everyone, certainly put it into perspective for me! This website is my bible at the moment.
  2. Something was to happen, but you only have 15 % of what u should have? Anyone else worry about this? I suppose its just the permanance of the procedure that scares me. How did you get over these fears?
  3. How soon could someone do a 15 hour flight? Any input appreciated.
  4. Thanks for your reply Globetrotter. Yes they are doing the surgery here, however, costs are double what i would pay in Mexico. The doctors that i have to choose from are limited and having already visited a few for consultations, was not impressed with "customer service" and general care available after. 3 weeks later is impossible for me and I would need to travel home a week max, after surgery. Still in research mode so maybe I will find something better suited to me over here! Thanks again for your input! Groove
  5. Hi all, Im a newbie here, have been reading for sometime and just wondering what your experiences are with flying afterwards? Im thinking about going to Mexico (at the moment i am impressed with dr ramos kelly) however the journey home for me would involve a 4 hour flight to chicago then a 15 hour flight back to UAE. Is this a crazy idea? Whats your experiences? Thanks a lot, groove
