    Rainy Girl, I was going to ask how you were feeling & think I copied your post in error.
    I defiantly feel your symptoms cuz I have them too. I still drink out of a 2oz glass& I can barely get Water down. I got out of the hospital today & see a GI specialist next week. Take care!

    lulugirl got a reaction from lynnz in Garcia/catheter?   
    I'm here in Meixico now, had surgery Mondy, 7/9 with Dr Garcia. My husband was really impressed with the care I recvd. everyday I feel a little better. the broth at the Marriott is good. Nurses at Mi hospital were always there with pain med, cleaning my wounds. It really is a great experience.
    I'm still a little tired so sleeping quite bit. no catheter!

    lulugirl got a reaction from 2bsmallagain in Emailed Dr. Garcia/no Response   
    I work for large & well known medical facility in AZ. It would be very rare for a Doctor to Email you. You would go though his nurses who would triage the situation & then respond to your question.
    I was just released from Dr Garcia yesterday, he tol me to contact Rosie or Melly with any questions.
    I was given a list of name & phone numbers when I left the hospital. In fact Rosie clalled me last night & is coming by today to see me.

    if I was having symptoms after my surgery, I wouldn't wait 3 days for any doctor to call back. I would go the nearest ER for treatment. Since I'm having my surgery in Mexico. & live in AZ, I'm not sure what ALM could do for me, except to say go the ER.
    I am sorry that your friend had issues. Hope she is doing better.

    lulugirl got a reaction from 2bsmallagain in So What Dr.s Are Actually With A Lighter Me?   
    I started looking to book surgery a few weeks ago & Dr Kelly was not listed on "A lighter me" website..
    Im going to be using Dr Garcia through them & the price for a revsion was $5500..I have had my band already removed. I have read many excellent comments about Dr Garcia so I am very comfortable with my decision. A Lighter me has been very helpful & answered all of my questions promptly!
