lulugirl got a reaction from mizzliz83 in So Many Complications, Can't Keep Anything Down.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 ResponseI 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.

lulugirl got a reaction from paigep in Help Me Decide: Dr. Kelly Or Dr. Garcia? Anyone Have Any Input?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!
