I had my surgery in Egypt! My sister lives there now and i was visiting her on a vacation gor 2 weeks. so I thought why not. I am very happy with my doctor and hospital. Zero complications and minimum pain.

Hi Dimka I'm also considering Egypt for my Bariatric surgery. Who was your doctor and what hospital?

How was your experience please kindly share. Thanks.

Hey my first post here!

I'm 6weeks out and I'm really struggling to stay hydrated. I live in the tropics so hydration is always an issue but now more than ever! I feel like I'm constantly drinking and it's a pain when I have to stop to eat, just really worried about what I'm doing to my kidneys if I stay dehydrated!

I have a drink with me at all times and I must drink around 3 liters a day.

I had my surgery done in India... ONLY $4500!! Excellent surgeon great follow up... Just worrying about dehydration

I am a loyal bariatric pal reader/writer, but there just aren't enough MGB patients on here for me to find enough information.

Does anyone else have any other favorite forums for MGB? I am interested having my operation in India or Mexico, maybe even Italy. There is even a doctor in India (i think) that is doing robotic MGBs. I'm off to google now.

Thanks in advance,

Hi did you get your surgery done in I did? I'm considering that too please can you tell me the name of hospital and surgeon. Did your experience go well?

Thanks for the response and heads up Lulu, I will try to bring someone along because I'm not emotionally strong. Good luck healing and I hope you feel better soon.

I'm doing okay. Much better. Feeling a tiny slight headache. Slept for 12 hours which I think is enough.

Trying to think of how to shower without wetting my incisions.

Gina, i had a sleeve surgery and I don't know about post op care. My family have no clue at all that I had surgery but my best friend back in the Uk knows and I'll be informing my GP in the UK and tell her that I had surgery. I'll check today if they sell compression stockings here at the pharmacy and buy them.

Too be honest, the thing that frightens me other than being alone here is my dissertation which needs to be submitted in almost a month! I think I'm the only person in the world who would go out of their mind to have surgery before a short period of their deadline...

I'll tell you something but don't laugh lool. Yesterday I had more than one dream (nightmare to be specific) that I was eating so much food hahahaha! In the first dream aka nightmare I ate the whole dinner table and finished by eating more than a croissant! At one point, I could barely breath! I felt like chocking so I woke up frightened and actually believing than I'm eating in reality lol! Strange...
