  1. Barbara, Did you go through the VSG with Dr. Jose Rodriguez? If so, can you give me some more information on your surgery. How was the surgery and doctor? Any leaks? Any problems with infections? How was your stay and flight home? Any help will be appreciated. I am due to go on the 29th. Vamom
  2. Did you have to surgery done? What was the results and any complications? Did you like Dr Rodriguez and the hospital and staff? I am scheduled on the 29th and don't see anything about this doctor in this forum. It makes me doubly nervous. VAmom
  3. I have been really excited about doing this on the 29th of December. Until today. I was reading through the fatty liver thing and got really nervous. It is Christmas and I have been baking. I have not followed this diet really well. Anyway, now I am nervous. I also have a question. I am going into Juarez to do this surgery and my doctor is Dr. Jose Rodriguez. Has anyone had Dr. Rodriguez performed their VSG? I am nervous not to really know my doctor and facility until the day of surgery. Is this normal? Has anyone had their surgery at the new facility in Juarez? Just thinking and I am really nervous. I am going alone, because I have little kids and my husband needs to be with them. I have older children, but they are working and busy. How well are you taken care of and how do you take showers, what clothes do I take, what food do I take, how much money do I take, do I exchange my money into pesos or leave it american, do I take the my post op food with me or do they provide it. I am so nervous. Thanks for helping, VAmom:001_unsure:
