  1. Here is my preop for one week. • All kinds of liquids • Water, tea, lemon water (take at least 3.5 liters a day) • fruit juice drinks, natural fruit beverages, chicken stock, yogurt, Jello (gelatine desserts). • Same liquids plus one Protein shake per day.
  2. I hope I'm that lucky. I've tried all the prevention meds but don't take any currently. My blood pressure runs about 110/65 so the bp meds always made me feel like I was passing out. I tried some of the antidepressant meds and would sleep for days. I took topamax for a long time but it makes you feel stupid. I'm really scared about the pre-op diet. However, if losing the weight even makes the migraines less severe it will be worth it!!! I'm pretty sure phenergan and imitrex weren't mean for long term, very regular use. Lol. I hope yours stay gone. That would be such a blessing for you!!!
  3. I'm not having surgery until July. However, I have a question about migraines. Was anyone that has had the sleeve surgery a migraine sufferer? How did the pre-op and post-op dieting affect your migraines? My migraines are fairly severe and can lead to hours of vomiting and dehydration. I'm worried the drastic change in quantity/way of eating will cause migraines and I don't want to be throwing up from a migraine after surgery. Thanks!
  4. The Passcard was only $55, application fee included. That is far better than a mess trying to get across the border.
  5. I took the application in for my passport today and they told me the pass card would be fine. It was much cheaper and she said the turn around time was 3-4 weeks right now.
  6. I couldn't find anything either. I was hoping someone would be able to tell me something. I really like the idea of the single incision.
  7. Has anyone used Dr. Carlos Arturo Diaz Avelar? What was your experience? Has anyone had the VSG with the single incision? What are your thoughts?
  8. What was the cost with Dr. Arial Ortiz?
