    any complications from Dr Aceves?

    I don't have any history with him, but outpatient is pretty typical and considered safe for most getting the sleeve procedure.

    I had a small leak. now all hell has broken loose

    No, but I just messaged her to let her know people are wondering how she's doing. I'd be curious to know, too. Anna you sound more positive than you have in the past - that's great to hear. Sounds like this is going to be the answer you need. Keep us posted!!

    Beware of Mexico Bariatric Center (MBC)

    --- 1) Was there a price difference discussed between if the sleeve could be performed v. if it could not be performed? If so, what was it? 2) It is noteworthy to mention that there could be inflammation or other medical issues relating to the prior bariatric surgery that can prevent the gastric sleeve procedure from safely being performed. This comment is very interesting. Are you alluding that perhaps this was the case for Debra? 3) redo the surgery for no fee for himself Why would he offer this as an option if the sleeve surgery had already been performed? 4) If there was no sleeve procedure, MBC surgeon will perform gastric sleeve and the only charge she will be responsible is the revision part ($1400).Why in the world would she be responsible for any charges, if the sleeve had not been done, even though a doctor has told her it had been & there are chart notes supporting that it had been completed?

    How long do you wait to drink after eating?

    I try to do 15 min either side but sometimes life just doesn't work out that way. That, or I get really thirsty and take a little sip after a meal.
  9. I'm sorry that you work at such an unprofessional company. Seriously. Been there and it sucks.

    nervous i need insight

    Discomfort for a few hours. Really very manageable. I remember right after surgery, I had this conversation with the nurse: Me: 'I'm in pain.' Nurse: 'What would you rate it on a 1-10 scale?' Me: '4' Nurse: 'You just had surgery. You're going to have some discomfort.' Me: 'Oh.' It was like 1/100th of childbirth.
