  1. I had surgery with Dr. Kelly the begining of Aug. I have to tell you that I had the best experience that I could have asked for. I was so scared, and I am not no young chick!! I m 59 and have a ton of comobidities. I flew in on a Sat. and had surgery on Monday. and I had no problems. I had a bit of shoulder pain after surgery and some pain at the site. But the next morning I was up, walking and going outside. I never took any of the pain meds that I was given. I stayed at the hospital till Wed. then went to the hotel till Sat am. and I felt GREAT! I had no problems except a bit of diareah which was my fault. I had some of that wonderful mexican beef broth. big no no. stick with the powdered broth, and liquids. When I got home i was tired, but i drove. so its up to how you feel and as long as your not on any pain meds. you should be fine. I could have gone back to work that week, but I stayed home and took a few weeks off. I was tired off and on for two weeks, but there was no problems from the surgery. I just had to be sure to sip, sip, sip and get in the protein. I was lucky to have Trish when I was there, she took care of everything. I was picked up at the airport, drove to the hotel, then to the hospital and then back to the hotel, and she took me shopping! She is there in Mx. where the others that you book with are brookers, and aren't in Mx. but you will be fine. You are in good hands with Dr. Kelly. He is a very wonderful dr. and he visited me each night in the hospital and in the hotel. good luck to you!!
