  20. Try "a lighter me" they have a Facebook page with a large following . Lots of info. They are in Tijuana mexico
  21. I was talking about if you have surgery in Mexico and need to be treated back in the United States for aftercare. Most insurance companies won't touch you most emergency rooms have to accept you and treat you but your insurance does not have to pay for it most likely they will refuse as a result from surgery out of the country Sent from my XT1055 using the BariatricPal App
  22. I am currently looking into Medical Tourism ins. Reading the fine print. I so have a few questions. Otherwise chances are if your insurance does not cover surgery it will not cover bariatric or anything after surgery when you get back home. The chance of something happening is pretty slim but it does happen. Sent from my XT1055 using the BariatricPal App
