  3. Good for you :-) you made a great choice going with Dr. Illan! Best wishes to you!
  4. Also please check out Dr.Illan he has a kick butt team and is a great surgeon!
  5. Hi there! I was sleeved this past June in tj by dr Kelly. When your coming back and forth across the border your in a company van and cecey his wife/nurse/driver has some sort of medical pass. Several of us only had birth certificate and license and one gal only license. Nobody batted an eye, it was very easy and uneventful. But... That was with dr Kelly's crew. I imagine the other prominent surgeons operate the same way? Anyways, I wish you a safe trip and speedy recovery!!!

  7. I left kids behind also. Mine are 19, 15, 12, 10, 8, and 6. I know how you feeling. I just want you to know when they wheel you out of your room and bring you into that operating room you will be terrified ( I dong care who your surgeon is) all I could think is " what the hell am I doing? " then I prayed!!! My sister in law (who has also done this) went through the same thing at that moment. So when your there being wheeled down just know that being scared is normal. It's not your conscience telling you something bad is gonbz happen. And I don't think you'll have any trouble with your aftercare. :-)
  8. Ooops! Sorry Kathy! I spelled your name wrong.
  9. Hi Cathy! Welcome to your journey! I hope it is as pleasant as mines been! There's lots of helpful people on this forum take full advantage. No question is a dumb question. Here's to you!!!
