Pre sleeve smokers ?
chunkycharlie replied to chunkycharlie's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
OK thanks guys, I just needed to hear it from some one else, I will ask the doc about these things when I finally make a date but when your just starting so many things go through your head. I know it's bad and am going to quit with gum and patch because my weight will no longer be as difficult to manage while trying to quit. -
I want to quit completely, the gum and the patch help curb the craving but the actual not smoking starts me to gain weight, if your a smoker you know exactly what I mean. I just don't want to set myself thinking I'm doing the right thing with cessation aids and then some one is like oh here's a cup so we can test your nicotine. Thank you guys for answering by the way :-)

Where to go in mexico
chunkycharlie replied to chunkycharlie's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
OK thank you , going to this link now. -
My question is what does the surgeon say when patients vomit so soon after surgery? As a nurse my initial reaction is that vomiting must be extremely painful, and what happens to your suture line during up chuck ?

I haven't had mines done yet, but as a nurse I can tell you it sounds like an iron deficiency, definitely tell your doc as he may suggest bumping up on your iron intake.

That sounds awesome, may I ask what doc ? And what did 2 years of records consist of ? Just basic records or something in particular? May I also ask what insurance? I have health net. -
Bariatric pal specials
chunkycharlie replied to chunkycharlie's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
Oh OK thanks -
I'm just curious to know, I keep seeing the bariatric pal specials pop up through out the forums, is this what everyone is using and paying for ? Or is it just a random ad?

Self Pay Questions!
chunkycharlie replied to mrsderouen's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm new here and not sure I'm in the right forum but want to go to mexico but not sure which doc is reputable and wondering do they have payment plans . Not financing, I'm talking real payment plan , like I pay a certain amount now to have my surgery then make payments for the rest.
